DAY 51 - LALIN TO SILLEDA - 18KMS

This morning it was decidedly cooler than yesterday and overcast, making for very clammy conditions. We set off later than usual at around 7:30am after our usual....well you know what!

The first few kilometres were up and down Tarmac paths, dodging main roads and motorways and walking through trading estates. Not very nice! After that the path went cross-country through very pleasant valleys, wooded areas and the inevitable villages. Today we met two very nice young Germans, Nora and Lászlo, who have taken time out before doing their Masters degrees, to travel around Europe. They were both carrying far too much weight and Nora was suffering from severe blisters. We travelled together for two or three hours until we reached Silleda. They had to carry on a few more Kms as someone had offered to take some of their luggage forward and they did not want to lose it! We have agreed to try and meet up tomorrow either on the Camino or in the Albergue in Outeiro, where we are heading tomorrow.
