All the complaining I've been doing digitally must have helped because today was better in every aspect than yesterday. The route, the sun, my feet, all were kinder. My mood was better and I even made better time to my destination. Though today was probably the least picturesque of the stages so far. To perfectly simulate it all you would have to do is put a grocery bag full of bricks on your back then walk down the shoulder of the interstate between the hours of noon and 3pm. The scenery was like one of those Looney Toons cartoons where they reuse the same background frame for every 3 transtions. Powerline....stonewall...cows....rock....powerline.... repeat ad nauseum. I am happy to say that I am only 66km from Santiago, which equals out to 3 normal to easyish days. STILL unable to post pictures, but not for lack of effort. Just Google Image search Galicia and that's probably a fair representation.

you are going to cry when you make it to Santiago. I PROMISE you, it will be one of the most special moments of your life when you enter the city and then eventually walk through the ancient narrow streets, through a small tunnel, and into the most beautiful plaza where the entrance to the cathedral is located that everyone enters through. Just have that picture in your mind and know Ill be waiting for you buddy. Stay safe and enjoy the experience man. Wish I could be there with you
