    Iberian Lynx sighting.

    The Lynxeseses are probably much more prevelant than the officials declare (they dont particulrly want to be seen).

    Would you recommend continuing to the ocean after Santiago?

    So does Finistere or Muxia have the better beach? If your going to walk to the sea you MUST end IN the sea.
