We brought our luggage to the hotel’s reception area at 8am other peregrinos getting breakfast. We were told that the breakfast started at 8, but the hard boiled eggs were gone and many people were already eating.
The way markers give the distance to Santiago de Compostela. 160,000km! The coastline is stunning and the weather was beautiful. We came upon a group from California, two of the women were doing headstands in front of a small building with a large yellow Camino scallop shell. I helped spot them up to the wall, but didn’t take any photos.
Monte de Santa Tecla was visible behind us for quite a ways.
The path was by the ocean most of the way, with occasional sections next to a highway. There were several rest areas for peregrinos and only one cafe along the way, where we stopped for lunch. Mom and I split a large fruit salad that was made to order and a tortilla (baked omelette with onions and potatoes). Another spectacular view.
We started a list of all the plants and animals and were impressed by the large tree kale and the healthy looking farm animals.
