7 miles and 15K steps in 2.5 hours from Palas to Melide.
Today was rest day so I kept the walk short. Started at 8 am on a very foggy day and reached my destination by 10.30 only to find out that checkin was at 1 pm. Spent the next few hours checking out the local church, enjoying chocolate and churros, talking to an old friend and finally sitting in the city center park reading my book with 3 old men as company. Lunch was at a super cute garden restaurant with excellent service.






Walk today was through dense mossy forests. Since I had decided on a short day, I felt my motivation levels were low so didn’t enjoy it as much as the previous 3 days. Since tomorrow will be a long day (33 kms), I felt my body was recharging during the short walk today to prepare for tomorrow. It will definitely be mind over matter tomorrow.
