Day 21 9 June Palas del Rei to Casteneda
16 miles today
Pazo de Sedor tonight
Mostly up all day.
Overcast and intermittent rain all day
In Melide, at the city market to buy our lunch. Joe and Shiela, Canadians, did the same and we entertained locals while eating in the park. Also, we stopped in the St. Mary's Romanesque church. Ann-Marie lit a candle for her father, Arthur.
Later, stopped at a small church in Boente. The priest was there and said a short blessing for us pilgrims and told about the church and all of the statuary.
We expected warm dry day, but got neither.The elevation map depicted an easy day, but it was harder than expected.
Ann-Marie joined the blister club today! Just 2 days before Santiago. Go figure.
We arrived to find the casa rural to be a 300 year old restored stone farm house and dining room formerly a stable. Lovely.
The Inn Keeper, Xuan!
