Welcome to Galicia.

Yesterday we crossed over into Galicia, the final province. We are now down to about 130 kms. to go to Santiago. We have slowed down to 20 km days so that we meet the girls in Sarria, and then do the final 100 kms. all together.
Galicia, home of fine wine, delicious cooking and notorious weather (have not see that yet). Weather continues to be prefect.

 Our way has become busier in the past few days; many more Spanish folks, some groups of school kids, and herds of cows.  Among all the pilgrims along the way, the cows are by far the messiest. Also, while the rest of us politely fill our water bottles from the village fuente, the cows show few manners in this regard. But given the wonderful cheese we´ve eaten in the past few days, no complaints, 


queso de O´Cebreiro with honey
