29 May - Stage 4 - Bodenaya to Campiello

Started off in the thick mist. Flat for a while, then uphill to Tineo. Through long stretches of mud. In forest. Narrow footpaths. Cows of 2 breeds, brown, and black and white. Many foals suckling their mothers. Chickens look so much healthier than the miserable creatures I saw in Portugal, all animals look healthier. Spring flowers everywhere.


Passed interesting wall feature.

Saw many old churches, such as this one, San Roque.

Walked above Tineo and saw this sundial.

Scared would not get a bed at the next albergue as Bodenaya was full, I was the last person! Arrived at Campiello, a wonderful restaurant, albergue and hotel. The flat rate included Clara and lunch (soup, salad and wine) on arrival or dinner, and breakfast. I paid extra because I had lunch and supper.
