WHAT A WAY TO TRAVEL...


We met this guy on the way, he has come from Bilbao with his one wheel cycle...

OLD FRIDGE


This is like a old fridge in Calicia.. In rural ares every house has their own food storage that they used before the fridge came in to the kitchen...

COCA-COLA

Have you ever seen this before???

IN CALICIA





In Calicia the seanery and roads changed completely, it was so beautiful to ride through these forest roads and paths...

CONVENT OF SAMOS




We visited the convent of Samos. It is a huge convent but only 15 munks live there. In that evening we had a nice meal with a Dutch couple also travelling by bike and a Danish lady walking alone.


SAMOS

I arrived in Samos before Gerald, I lost him on the way, he has taken a small Camino and i carried on on the main road, he had the only phone and I had no money on me so I got credit from the local bar to call him...

ACEROLES



Aceroles are small fruits that look like apples but they only grow in this area, they taste like acid apples...
