Distance to go : 200 kms
We thought that we would take advantage of another rest day today as we will be walking a 30 kms day tomorrow. The other reason was that we would have extra time in Tapia, definitely my favourite destination so far.
Wandering down to breakfast locals were lining up for their fresh bread delivery.
A leisurely breakfast with wifi and FaceTime with the family.
A quiet walk around the harbour - only a few locals up and about.
One of my favourite houses on the cliff over the main beach.
Love this little gem, Casa Mario. I would love to rename it Casa Nonna and have it for our own.
Over the bridge, crossing from the Asturias into Galicia - home stretch!
We took the 1 pm bus and arrived in Ribadeo, busy with holidaymakers.
We have now moved from The Asturias into the province of Gallica, another fiercely proud
region, like the Basques and Catalonians.
A beautiful park in the centre of the city surrounded by interesting buildings in the Plaza de Espana.
The Torre de la Moreno.
A delicious lunch upstairs in a local restaurant.
A walk along the harbour.
And who should we find camping at the small albergue (12 beds) but the Capenays, now at a
standstill with Lolika suffering from a severely sprained foot. They have been able to secure a
house in town for a reasonable rent so that he can recover. So wonderful to catch up and
exchange details before saying goodbye to them.
Our one star hotel, Ros Mary, was recommended in the guidebook. 60 euros, convenient
and clean with bar, restaurant and friendly manager.

Hello! Love the historic churches and strange to see eucalypts so far from home. The finish line now in sight...almost. We are sure you will avoid the many perils that befall inexperienced walkers as the young bloke with the sprained foot clearly demonstrates!
The young bloke had walked over 700 kilometers to get to that point so I wouldn't call him inexperienced.
