Day 34 - 11kms

Left Melide at 8.30am after preparing and eating our own breakfast.  Five and a half kms to our first coffee at a Germany cafè.  It was overcast and threatening to rain.  Walked through shaded forest, surprisingly eucalyptus.  Arrived at Ribadiso albergue early and had to wait until 1pm until it opened.  We deliberately decided to stay here; one of the oldest pilgrim albergue still in existence.  We got a nice bunk in the corner with plenty of room for our packs,  and also near the heater. Met Kent from South Africa who had just finished his two weeks volunteering in the Maseta in an albergue.  We later shared a taxi to Arzua to have a meal at a restaurant which was recommended.  We had roast beef and potatoes.  Kent told us some interesting stories over dinner of his times volunteering over the past three years. He suggested that we would make good volunteers. ........mmmmmm! !!!!!! Taxi  home,  €5.
