Nice to hear you are on the Camino again. Althought with busted little toe I liked Ingles very much. Due to injury I walked the shortest possible stages and slept in every albergue on InglesLeft Hotel America this morning after a simple but sensible breakfast: fresh orange juice, tostadas con tomate y aceite, and cafe con leche. A really lovely exit from Ferrol along the bay, arriving eventually at Neda, where we sat on a bench munching our bread rolls that we had bought in Lidl, along with boiled eggs and salted peanuts, and an apple and lots of water. Socks dried in the sun, and we used the faceless google map voice person to guide us to Pension Maragoto where we have once more got spotlessly clean facilities, and a view back across to Ferrol. Now rest, then later a stroll around and a visit to the church where there will be a mass for pilgrims at 8.
A few photos, and thanks to Elle and Johnniewalker for guides...

The single most exciting thing about your post is that you've BOILED EGGS! I have so many food allergies and really relied on eggs on my walks. Did you have the opportunity to boil yourself, or ( even better ) could you buy them ready to go? I'm off to walk the Ingles in 39 days beginning in Ferrol...Buen Camino!Left Hotel America this morning after a simple but sensible breakfast: fresh orange juice, tostadas con tomate y aceite, and cafe con leche.

Tomorrow we will start with Csj guide and Elle... but as you must know the arrows are foolproof. We walked to the church of San Nicolas. I have a few photos, I will post them if I can depending on wifi, but in any case will send to Elle. Rain promised for tomorrow so poncho will get its first outing since 2013 on Portugués. Thanks for your post, I will let you know how we get on, but my guide will decide, and she follows the yellow brick road...I mean arrows! Don’t look for a meal before 9pm, and even worse on a Monday... we were very lucky to find Pizza Plaza. Super duper pasta, lovely welcome, spotless loo. Isabel is the name of the lady in charge.Nice to hear you are on the Camino again. Althought with busted little toe I liked Ingles very much.

Have you already decided about which way from Pontedeume to Mino? The official or seaside variante?
It doesn't change a thing if you enjoyed "Neda" because Hostal Maragoto is still in the town of Xubia but in council of Neda. Also the albergue there is called Albergue de Neda because the council is taking care for it. The town of Neda is approx.2km further along the estuary as you will see tomorrow
Buen Camino
You might choke, but we had them boiled in Soria on Saturday and carried them to Santiago that night, and have them, well only 2 left... they will go with paqmochila tomorrow as we plan to have a fine ‘American’ breakfast in the morning and will have sardines instead, if we can find some good Galician bread en route. Lunch is on a bench, under a tree, wherever we can perch and I can take off shoes and socks and wiggle my toes in the fresh air. Tomorrow, rain might make that difficult, but that is tomorrow. Right now we need clothes to dry themselves by magic in this humid climate. Really enjoying the slow pace and the words of Japan: gratitude, will power and rejuvenation!The single most exciting thing about your post is that you've BOILED EGGS!

May the rain stay away and your clothes get dry!Really enjoying the slow pace and the words of Japan: gratitude, will power and rejuvenation!
Yes! Your intervention kept the rain away! Lunch was very nice, sitting looking at the sea. I came looking for our hostal while MJ strolled along the shore and finally had a swim. I just needed to get out of my boots and socks...May the rain stay away and your clothes get dry!
Lunch al fresco on the Ingles? Wonderful. (Pass on the sardines, though. You can have all of them.)
Buen camino, peregrinas!
