Pedrouzo

Arzua – Pedrouzo 19km

After a nights kip in the room with the giant dutch girl snorting and sneezing all night, I was last to get up and get packed. It rained very heavily last night and I thought it couldn’t rain much more, but oh no, it poured all morning. I put on some shorts and a technical t-shirt and then a poncho over the lot. Head down and get the km done.

I soon ran into KH and we walked most of the way. I enjoy talking to KH as he is quite intelligent and an absolute gentleman. I also noticed today that he loves to take care of his gear, which is something I have always done. We walked til we met up with Jonathan and Bengt. Before we stopped at a cafe for a beer, and KH walked on. I kind of wanted to walk on with KH just to get the job done but I also like having a beer at this time of day. I pressed on myself after the beer just to get the walking finished for the day. Bengt and Jonathon do not walk as quick as I do so I left them behind.

Not a lot to see today other than the usual pathways and a few other eye-catchers.

I got to O Pedrouzo in good time and went straight to the laundrette to wash my wet stinking clothes. Then checked into my room for the night and got cleaned up. Went out with Bengt, Jonathan and Ted and Sarah from USA for dinner. We went to a nice restaurant called Taste the Way and ordered our starters, when those were finished we attempted to order our main course but were told that it would take a long long time as they only take one table order.

Ted was pretty furious and gave the manager a piece of his mind. We decided to leave and go to a burger bar for our main course. A little french lad working in the cafe took our order. At first I thought he was drunk as he was acting weird and was spilling knives and forks all over the place. Then I realised that perhaps he had some kind of disability and I felt ashamed of myself for thinking otherwise. Quite a bit of drink was taken then we all went to our albergues. I started writing this blog but then fell asleep and woke up at 6am. Time to get up again 🙄. Buenas Noches
