Day 118 Las Herrerias over O Cebreiro to Fonfria

Wow what a day!!! We started off with a little sprinkle that changed to snow as we climbed 930 meters/3000 feet. It was a beautiful winter scene, wait it’s SPRING!! It still was beautiful!!

We came across a most lovely vegetarian cafe after 3 kms of a straight climb up. It was a welcome relief!!

We met a French man in O Cebreiro who started in France and has walked 1400 kms. Today he declared this way is magical. After walking 1400 kms he just found a card from his wife that she put in his backpack. it was so sweet.

There was a little shop in the village. We went in and found a couple of items. When getting ready to pay the man asked us where we were from. So we told him a short version of our story. He said, “I have something for you!” And came back with a set of four small tiles. It was really beautiful. I teared up. It was so sweet.

We are at a beautiful albergue that has a fun communal meal. There was a birthday, some dancing, lots of good food. And we connected with Uroš and met new pilgrims. A good day.

The weather cleared.

  1. That Communal meal on my first Camino was definitely one of my highlights, and a great place to meet lots of other Pilgrims 🙂

    Bein Camino !
