22/5/13 Xunqueira de Ambia ➡ Ourense 23km
After a lovely rest day in Xunqueira, where I did nothing, it was on the road to Ourense.
Today I walked the way with Rian and Leo from Holland.
We had a lovely meander along the way stopping many times for coffee and a quick intake of food.
Nothing much to say about the camino today as it was all on the blacktop and through some industrial sites.
Ourense is a very large town and of course the Albergue is situated at the top of a massive hill! We are staying in an old converted convent.
There are thermal baths here that are free to the public but with 4 days left to Santiago, I don't want to risk softening my feet and getting blisters.
Another time, maybe.
We have been told you can get the best pulpy here at Casa Pulpo, so I think we will head there for some early dinner.
We passed a Hitos today that actually had the mileage intact, as most are vandalised.
We have 115km to Santiago left, woohoo.
