Wednesday 11th June Ribadiso

Every day is different - blue skies at last, brilliant green celtic landscape, stone walls, standing stones, chicken filled farmyards, Pushed bikes a significant distance up a stream. Pilgrims thick on the ground.

Pushing on to Santiago de Compostella.

Grilled cepes, jamon, sauteed fish and almond tart for 9 euro lunch. Cornwall riding in 'Budgie Smuggler' lycra.

Now in Ribadiso, 25 miles from Santiago.

Mdme. Blogmaster asked why they didn't stop at Melide which is halfway to Santiago from last night.

Answer: Didn't like Albuerge at Melide. Pressed on another 9 miles to find this Albuerge full, so we are 'virtual' camping. 2 hour ride to Santiago tomorrow.
