Viana do Castelo, resting not walking

Yep, my feet have decided. They are not at all happy, and so I just have to be patient while they heal. On the upside, I was able to book a second night where I’m staying (having not arrived until 620 last night after a long walking day and doing laundry), and it is a very restorative environment on the outskirts of town, with a big garden and amazing home cooked food. I am pretty nervous about my next long day walking, so will need to be really sure I can avoid friction from now on. Working on it, and trying to stay positive! May need to get some hiking sandals.

In the meantime, here are a few more pics from the last day or so, coming into Viana do Castelo and my slow, careful wanderings today in socks and slides like a young person.

Tomorrow I will head by train to Caminha, then boat/ feet or bus to A Guarda, which is just across the border into Spain.
