Thanks Wayfarer, unfortunately just one more day to go ... Then what am I going to do?!

Eat Tapas at El Bispo and walk around with a big smile on your face

Of course, that goes without saying Miguel! Lunch at El Bispo, dinner at Casa Marcelo and a celebratory Nordes G&T somewhere in between

How are you feeling now after two days in Santiago?

How are you feeling now after two days in Santiago?

Hi Al,
I had one night in Santiago where I ate enough to make up for 2 weeks of no appetite! and then flew back to London yesterday.

I flew out of A Coruna airport for the first time, easy enough to get to from Santiago. I took the train to A Coruna and then a 10 min taxi (€15) because I was a little short on time but I know there is also an airport bus from near the train station. A Coruna airport is tiny and didn't have a bag wrapping service which I usually use to make sure my pack with all of its straps arrive in one piece (always need to check it in because of my poles and a Swiss card), but it arrived safely as did the bottle of Galician Nordes gin that was wrapped up in my sleeping bag

The one good thing about being home: not having to use bed bug spray!

Until the next walk...

I never got to A Coruna airport. I was meant to go there before the Ingles in 2012 but Vueling overbooked and I lucked out. Welcome back to soggy blighty.
