Day 27 – It’s a long way to Santiago…it’s a long way to go.

Cacabelos to Vega de Valcarce – 24.5km

Well that’s the last time I go to bed sober. I was awake until well after midnight. Or perhaps my afternoon siesta from 4 to 6pm was to blame.

It was a nicer walk today although still alongside a road.We arrived in an albergue on the river at the base of a big hill we’re gonna climb tomorrow.

We cooked dinner as we’re sick of pilgrim meals. Chorizo and bacon pasta with a 1 euro carton of wine. Probably won’t get the cheap wine again. Not good.

But, it was a nice setting overlooking the river.

There is still hardly anyone on the trail. Apparently that will change in Sarria.

We have started pre booking accommodation as well as our flight home.

We have one week to get to Santiago. No pressure.
