Happy Birthday, brother Bob in Prince George! Only 50.5 kms to Santiago. Beautiful forest walk with autumn colors. At the beginning of the day, someone had set up a stand selling fresh raspberries and jam, with jugs of water for the perigrinos. Such local kindness.
Stopped at Boente, took (I think!) some good shots of the Apostle Santiago in the church.

ttle harder with sore legs/feet after a very long day of walking). Painted lovely colors – green, turquoise. Our dorm has a large water feature, soothing and soft.Enjoyed some wine in the outdoor area, walked over to have caldo soup, then bed and the usual snore zone.
