Left León at 8am. Arrived at Cabanillas 2. The path is very beautiful.
20km total. Followed the River. At first town we went to the lovely Bar and Tienda. I bought cheese and ham and we were all set for Cabanillas.. (no...
More than halfway from Lisbon to Porto, now in Coimbra. There are more new pilgrims we are seeing each day. A total guess is about 25-30 we have seen moving in similar stages.

1. His means of avoiding the long detour when you first encounter the SS38 is perfect. Saved us, two...
Andy & Kate's Day 2: To Corleone: What a difference 3 days make! When Nick came through, (see post #9), the sun was beating down relentlessly, and there was no mention of difficult trail. But for us, rain and temps in the single digits turned...
