    Made it to Santiago. Wonderful ending felt like a stroll through my hometown. Am having lunch at a vegetarian restaurant named EntrePredras, highly recommended. Now I have 50 days left to sounter around, not certain what direction to go yet. Viva la Aventura!

    Day ? Cortegada, my wikiloc reported 34.5km, I followed the track from their website. Seems that it has gotten longer? The big dogs ignored me, no issues, but the little ones went berserk every time... Some trails were nice but by the end I was too tired to enjoy the river walk. No food as it...

    Day xx ++ : At Castro Laboreiro the land of the Portuguese Laboreiro dog, large breed, strong and I was warned to be careful of them. So far ok. Not so long a hike today but intense, specially the end. You need a strong heart and lots of water to make that climb, so be careful 😅 the view is grand!

    Ended the Torres in Braga and now starting on the Geira. I must say I liked Braga, so many beautiful sights, a very active scene. Torres was fun, challenging at times and great weather mostly. Coming out of Guimaraes I noticed a van following me. It turned out to be the guy that I had wanted...

    Day ?? In Amarante, staying at the Casa da Juventus, 10€ , including breakfast. Many beds and vegetarian menu. The only complain is , last night Friday, they had raging rave going on next door until 2am. Even the earplugs were useless. Not an everyday event but worth asking before reservations.

    Day 3: Alba de yeltes, wowikazawee, 26km, I would rate the difficulty at a 9 out of 10. Just when you think the hills are over another one comes along. Then you have to share the Camino with a few cows that look mean and your 2nd wind kicks in and you do a few km's really quick. But the steak...

    After a slow start, stuck at Newark airport for 22 hours, I am finally moving. Florida-newark-porto-salamanca-start. Salamanca had a festival going, lots of young wipper snappers. Albergue is donativo, clean with a nice couple running it. Great food. The fresh croissants in rua mayor are...
