Day 4 Primitivo (Espina to Campiello)

We had a pretty long walk ahead of us so we started very early. Everyone in our room was up by 5:15 so we started getting ready. We left by 6 am. It was going to be at least 10 kms before finding food.

We started in complete darkness through a forest. As the sun came up we saw some beautiful vistas again. We climbed. And we finally entered Tineo. We thought we were headed to a cafe to get breakfast but when we walked in they said they were closed.

Everyone we came across in town wanted us to know we were going the wrong way. We kept saying, “comer, we want to eat” finally someone pointed out a cafe. It was packed with locals but we enjoyed a Spanish tortilla. And we were hungry enough to enjoy another, knowing that this was our only stop.

We made our way back to the camino and climbed way up. And were in a lot of mud. It’s okay it washes off.

We made our way into Campiello and were able to eat an early dinner. We met Ray from Wisconsin, saw Shannon from Florida. We made it an early night because of getting up and going early. It was another good day.
