Sao Roques? near Rubiaes




I ave forgotten what day number it is, I think 9. Stayed last night at the alberque in Ponte de Lima. An uncomfortable night. 18km today up over a big climb in the rain. Now staying in a Pensao at Sao Roques (I think it is spelt something like this). Looks lovely. Sharing a rooom with Steve and the German lady (Sieglinde or similar). Having dinner with another German lady as well. Lots of German ladies. Another walked with us for a large part up the hill/mountain today. Left stones and shells at a wayside cross for my dad, a workmates mum, and some sick folk today. Was tearful, but special. Tomorrow we hope to make the border.
Until later, ate logo

Hi Ashley,
Good to see your feet are getting better and keeping up the pace. My prayer for your well being there!

Couple of questions - does it cost you to read SMS or answer the call?
