Day 2 Portomarin Friday 3rd May 2013


Photo taken from hotel bedroom on early Friday morning as the mist rises above the restaurant of O Chanto. Today we would walk to Portomarin. Our luggage was in the hall for its 8.00am pick up. We set out with the sun at our backs.

 


The path brought us through lush agricultural lands with rich agricultural smells.  As Phil remarked early on the first day, ‘ a walk downhill invariably means a walk uphill sooner or later’; generally sooner.






The morning mist held on as long as it could until the bright sun chased it away mid-morning. Our path brought us through farms and fields. Every farm seemed to boast a corn shed, chickens and cows, many of whom we met on way to milking.
