[QUOTE="jungleboy, post: 872407, member: 77691"] [B]Day 14: Coimbra to Sernadelo (~24km)[/B] An unremarkable day today unfortunately, but that happens sometimes. [B]The path along the river leading out of Coimbra was blocked off at the train station[/B] and we had to detour via Avenida Magalhães, following the red marked path on the Wise Pilgrim map (usually indicating a previous/wrong way!), before passing a McDonald’s and then crossing under the railroad before picking up the arrows again. [SPOILER="Church of Santiago in Coimbra Pre-Dawn"][ATTACH type="full" alt="AB84DCC9-F427-4DE8-8B2E-FF328DCEC108.jpeg"]82987[/ATTACH][/SPOILER] The first ~12km of the day was road walking through fairly uninteresting towns. The one highlight was a huge camino mural in Trouxemil that I posted about separately in [URL='https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/wonderful-camino-mural-near-coimbra.68480/']this thread[/URL]. [SPOILER="One Part of the Mural"][ATTACH type="full" alt="79340EC9-96C8-4102-81BD-B57A764D2C28.jpeg"]82988[/ATTACH][/SPOILER] Just before Mala, there is a ‘Fonte’ sign and an arrow pointing left. You can’t see the fountain from that spot but it is only 150m or so away. We went to check it out and while we were there, a local man drove up and filled up large bottles with water. He explained that it was a natural water source and that he himself had built the attached community clothes washing facility for the local government years ago (now unused). Given the relative rarity of available drinking water at times on the CP, this was a good find and we had our picnic lunch there too. We are staying at the Residencial Hilário, an albergue of sorts at the end of Mealhada in Sernadelo. It’s €30 for a clean double room with bathroom. There’s an Intermarché (closed today for inventory, naturally!) and a Lidl at the start of Mealhada. [/QUOTE]
