The day began with rain, but gradually turned sunny as we walked out of the city. We were delighted to be joined by Jojo and Susan from Ireland who were a little lost and looked to us for guidance. š
A gentleman along the way insisted that we proceed in a direction that he assured us was the best. Jojo and Susan followed his suggestion, but we went rogue and climbed the hills out of the city following the traditional arrows along a spectacular forest path.
The trail held so many incredible sights. We found ourselves visiting with many fellow pilgrims. The final 100km is a busy place since that's the minimum distance needed to earn a Compostela certificate.
One highlight was a waterfall that seemed to appear out of nowhere.
The only downside to a nearly perfect day is a mix-up in our reservation that leaves us a bit stranded in an out-of-the-way "Casa Rural" where we'll spend an extra night before the next leg of our trip. We plan to explore the area and rest a bit tomorrow. We'll keep you updated!
Today's path:

He has link history with his Deepsea though. We've seen him wearing it as far back as link 2015 when he won his first NBA Most Valuable Player award. So clearly it's a meaningful piece for him, and we link love that.
Glad you followed the arrows and we get to see those beautiful forest views. Hope your out of the way casa holds some delights for you. Safe travels, good rest.š
