Rest day today. Our first job was to find a delicious bakery for our coffee, which we did.
We heard some traditional tunes played by bagpipe and tamborine, reminiscent of the Muxia festival.
Many priests and nuns in the city with so many churches and monasteries to support.
Stalls to tempt tourists. These are gorgeous country scenes with a Camino twist.
At every turn another church or chapel. This one dedicated to San Pelayo, our saint of the week.
In a quiet street we found this upmarket restaurant, A Curtidoria Restaurante, with a 13 euro Menú del Día.
Ambience and excellent menu.
No language needed. A small family and a mother with an unfinished meal. This is Claudia, a most placid child and the best antidote for an abuela (grandmother), who is missing her grandchildren.
The picturesque narrow street back to our pensión.
Time for a haircut and trim. A bit of Spanish makeover magic. Next door to Casa Felisa for dinner in a romantic setting. Very fitting for our final evening in Spain. And one of the waiter's brothers lives in Canberra!

Well done! A good rest is well deserved after a walk that must have been difficult at times with knees playing up.
