26/5/13 Silleda ➡ Outeiro 25 km

26/5/13 Silleda ➡ Outeiro 25 km

Awoke to a foot that was much better. 
The 100mg voltaren tablet had something to do with that though !
Yesterday's meltdown a thing of the past. 
It was on to the outskirts of Santiago, do or die.
Good Camino today, small amount of blacktop, but mostly track.
Beautiful scenery and back through what I call medieval forests. If you are a watcher of Game of Thrones you will know what I mean.
I can just imagine wearing one of those long flowing dresses, Maid Marion style, through Sherwood Forest. Oops think I've one a bit loopy after so much walking!

Anywhoo, last big day of walking and it was a biggy. Down a massive hill, then up the other side. 
The Albergue, of course, was at the top of the hill and we knew in advance that there are no shops around, so we needed to bring food in for dinner. We each carried an ingredient to share the load and it was delicious. Pasta Atun ( tuna pasta). 

Our room is almost full and we got a lovely surprise when our Dutch Amigos just arrived after a huge leg 34 km.  So we will definitely be partying tomorrow night in old Santiago Town.
 
Think I will turn the iPad off and have an early night as we have an early start and so much excitement in store mañana.

Tomorrow we will have walked the 1000km from Seville ➡ Santiago in 45 days.
