Valenca to Porrino (18km)
We crossed Rio Mino and entered Spain and with a time-zone change -advancing one hour. The start of today's trek was a little more difficult as the trail markings were fewer and farther apart. But we were able to get help from the locals. It was another enjoyable trek through forests. As we got closer to Porrino we stopped at the most interesting bar. A horse stable, still housing two horses, and various related objects used for the bar. The food and wine was also made locally.
Porrino to Redondela (16km)
Today's trek combined forest trails and country roads, under shade half of the time. This is our second day in Spain and I'm having difficulty switching from the Portuguese language general greetings. I'm sure we'll have the same challenges when we return to Portugal in a few weeks. Our plan today was to go to Arcade but after a big lunch we decided to stay in Redondela. There are only auberges in Redondela and no hotels, but Julie is very resourceful and found an apartment to rent for the evening.
