Day 12 Caldas de Reis to Padron 20.4 km
Left at 8.45 after breakfast at the cafe of one of the hotels which was open on Sunday
morning. Cloudy but no rain. A good walking day as not too hot and a lot of shade and natural pathways.
Many of the fellow pilgrims have become familiar acquaintances as you are all going in the same direction, often staying in the same towns and eating out in the evenings.
Cafe break after 9 kilometers crowded but the staff in the bars and cafes here manage the rush with good humour and service.
Teresa and Katya from Poland.
CRONIN REUNION: Steve and Alan Cronin from Dublin.
Arrived at Padron by 3.00 checked into Hotel Rosalia opposite the railway station. Went to mass at the historic convent at 8.00 p.m. and back to the hotel for dinner.
Padron Peppers. One in twenty are chilli hot, a fun surprise when you get the hot one.
Only 25.5km to go to Saintiago de Compostella.
