Day 16: Home is where you hang your hat


Tonights hostel. It's booked full for 50 beds in 3 rooms, 1 bathroom for men (3 showers, 3 sinks, 3 showers), same for women. Sam says I'm making it sound bad. It's clean. I'm hoping all these people don't show up tonight because right now it's half full. 

We walked 8.6 miles today but it felt longer because all the hills and valleys. It was a beautiful day, sunny and 80 degrees. Above is a picture of one of the many eucalyptus forests that we walked through today. Nice scent. 

This is a picture showing the church facade that is pictured on the 10 €uro note. It is a 14th century church in Melide. I'm holding a 10€ note to show you the picture...it's a little small but you get the idea. 
Same church door. Pretty cool

What is Aunt Jemima doing in Spain!  We have seen very few people of color in Spain. They do have waffles here though. 

Here is a pilgrim with his horse carrying his pack. He and his horse have the bunk bed next to us. 

More lovely scenery. No rain since we've been here. It's supposed to be 85 degrees tomorrow and we have 10.1 miles to hike to our next village. So we are getting an early start to beat the heat.
