[QUOTE="jungleboy, post: 874471, member: 77691"] [B]Day 24: Casa da Fernanda to Ponte de Lima (~16km including lunch detour)[/B] Today was a great camino day! We started later than usual after having breakfast with other pilgrims at Casa da Fernanda, and with such a short day ahead, we walked slowly and made a few stops along the way to prolong the stage a bit. The camino was mostly country lanes and paths through vineyards and olive groves - the kind of trail I liked so much at various times between Tomar and Coimbra. The sun came and went throughout the morning and storm clouds made for a dramatic sky. We were both feeling better physically than in previous days (re: Wendy’s plantar fasciitis and my shin splints) and really enjoyed the entire walk. We didn’t see any pilgrims going our way and only two coming the other way. A few highlights from the morning: [SPOILER="Flowers after overnight rain"][ATTACH type="full"]83649[/ATTACH][/SPOILER] [SPOILER="Olive tree in storm light"][ATTACH type="full"]83650[/ATTACH][/SPOILER] [SPOILER="A horse in a vineyard!"][ATTACH type="full"]83651[/ATTACH][/SPOILER] Ponte de Lima is a lovely town and we’re happy to have stayed both here and at Casa da Fernanda even though that means doing a stage today that might be too short for some. We arrived at Ponte de Lima in time for lunch (at Orelha d’Elefante, a very worthwhile detour over the modern bridge for vegetarians or those who are craving some variety) although unfortunately it’s raining in the afternoon just as we were about to do some more exploring. [B]The albergue in Ponte de Lima is closed[/B]. We’re at Casa Cardeal Saraiva, a very nice apartment next to the main church which is good value at €39 on Booking.com. [/QUOTE]
