No peppers in padron

 Quiet night in Padron. We were up late having too much fun last night, with an awesome group of people. Staying at Chef Rivera tonight,  a nice centrally located place in Padron. The laundromat  next door made me very happy.  I tried to have Padron peppers at a lovely restaurant, but not in season? Ended up with an awesome cheese board that made up for it. Tomorrow is the day we walk into Santiago. I’m sad that it’s over as are most people I’ve met the past few days. Peter







seems glad that the walking is done though. We are all on our own Caminos, and though he doesn’t seem to  have loved this experience as much  as many, I’m so glad he came along to try. It will be my second time in Santiago- I can hardly wait!

She was very excited and still had another long flight after we all departed in Frankfurt. We were all one row behind business class. So yes we did the walk of shame past those lay down seats in business and watched them get their damn champagne. They ran out of  good  food choices for us,  ...

Porto the return

 We arrived back in Porto on what I like to call the Flix bus COVID express. Very bad masking and hot packed bus. That was last night. We did our COVID tests today. Negative  so far- so we can fly back. If COVID does  appear at least we will be back in the States.  Have a nice apt here for a few nights where all the action is near the station. We are all packed up off to airport early in morning. Sigh. Tons of group tours  here, lots of people traveling. It’s a whole other world out here! So glad we came!
