It was cold up on the mountain this morning but a glorious clear dawn made it well worth the effort to get up and out. The panorama is spectacular, and everything so beautiful that I was almost in a trance, and managed to take a wrong turn not once, but twice. Each time was down hill, of course, so I added a bit of climbing to the day as I corrected my mistakes and regained the path. The GPS has definitely earned its place.
The day lived up to the promise of the morning. Definitely Galicia - the path winding through stone villages surrounded by fields of lush pasture and the roads liberally splattered with cow poo.
Triacastela is a nice town. After a pleasant lunch I found a room, had a nap, ventured out to find the supermercados closed for the day, and after visiting the church, retired for the day.
Tomorrow to Sarria either via Samos or direct.
