Now the way without any
break goes downhill. Now and then we crossed a national road. Now the weather had changed.
fog-banks layed between the mountains. Then it began to rain cats and dogs. We became more
and more wet and it blew a more and more cold wind. In Viduodo ca 3 hours later we entered
a bar, where the innkeeper had made a fire in a stove so we could dry our clothes a little
bit. We had a good soup and salade. That was the "Meson Betularia". We put on an
anorak and trousers against the rain and from the moment we had been outside, the sun came
through the clouds. So we reached Triacastela. The refugio was full again, we had been to
late. But we got a sleeping place in the church of Triacastela. It was a hard wooden
ground inside but under the roof of a fine church. This church was the first where we get
informations about the way and the sense of the way in german language. |
