Today I walked (solo) from Porto to Vila do Conde along the Senda Litoral. It was almost a full 9 hours in near 30 degree heat - my pace is pretty damn slow. I saw 2 - 4 pilgrims my whole day. It was beautiful scenery, but unbearable heat & loneliness. I wasn’t expecting that at all.
Tomorrow I’m heading to Esposende and I’m hoping it will be better. Maybe the heat won’t be as intense? Maybe it’s my first Camino blues and my body isn’t used to it?
I was going to along the coast after Caminha, (to Oia & Baiona) but now I’m thinking I should cut in towards Valenca. Should I cut in after Esposende?
I need to know if things will get better? I’m feeling a little overwhelmed.
