Morning Selfie

The morning started off a bit hazy but it burned off pretty quickly.
It’s funny how easily the brain gets trained. Walking up to this mile marker and tree trunk, I fully believed the stump was shaped like a pilgrim because there are so many pilgrim statues along the path. Upon closer investigation I realized that no….it was just a tree trunk.

Galician granaries can be made of wood or stone but they are always raised from the ground by standing on pillars. They are everywhere! They helped to keep the crops away from animals and were mainly used to dry and store corn. The granaries are on most farms and differ in size. Although most are old and falling apart, they are beautiful to look at.

Typical Spanish breakfast. Spanish tortilla (think egg and potato quiche with no crust, cafe con leche and fresh squeezed orange juice.

There are so many cute dogs protecting their farms.
Mini scramble on the path.
I have always thought white horses were quite mystical.
As we walked into town, we were greeted by a bagpiper.
I stayed in Pension Restaurant Casa Camino II and it was ok. It advertised that it had a bathtub but was completely disappointed when I saw this as I walked into the room. I actually had to laugh out loud because I would have cried otherwise. I don’t think Rocket would have fit in the tub to be honest. I felt bad because I convinced Joanna to stay here as well but I was happy to have her as my neighbor. We went across the street for dinner and drinks and then got to bed early because tomorrow is a big day.
