Friday 10th October, head off into the misty morning, sunrise now not until 0900 hrs. Once again ascend above the tree line, the sun pokes through the clouds and raises the humidity, now I can see Melide about 12kms in the distance as I head down into the valley. Melide is the Primitivo joins with the Camino Frances, so suddenly there are peregrinos everywhere. A 35km day as I reach Ribadiso an original old pilgrim hospital on the camino now refurbished. It has beautiful old stone buildings perched by the river. The sun is shining and no rain today so I sit back and enjoy a couple of beers on the terrace of the restaurant. Later dine with a Scandinavian trio then early to bed.
