Walking Day 19 - A Gándara to O Pedrouzo

October 15, 2019





We left the Albergue at 8 AM in search of breakfast.  Started walking at about 8:45 in daylight and immediately came to the split in the Camino. We had 3 options.  The old route (longest) that joined the French route at Arzúa, the new “official” route (shortest) without accommodation for 40 km, and Option 2 which we took.  We walked 18 km without seeing another pilgrim until we reached the French route at Brea.






 Holly tree with berries 


Eucalyptus forest with perfect rows.

County road for 10 km


Lunch break out of the rain at a school bus stop 



Once we joined the French route at Brea there was a steady stream of Pilgrims.  We walked to the first bar and found it quite crowded w good food and....



Cerveza time



We continued on to shorten our final day finding a nice Pension, a Pilgrims meal and some fruit for the evening.  We saw cauliflower with gigantic leaves which we told are eaten and not part of a soup or broth. Who knew!
