Today was our day 30! Can’t believe that it’s been a month of our Camino (we had also 4 days of rest in Pamplona, Logroño, Burgos and Leon). Today we were walking from Portomarin to Palas de Rey (26.70 km to our albergue).
It was difficult day, because it was raining again, almost whole day! And for about an hour it wasn’t raining, when we were coming closer, but then again was quite strong rain..
We decided to put some plastic bags on our shoes in the morning, with duck tape. For Nastya it worked pretty well. But my feet were wet quite fast..
Yesterday in albergue in Portomarin I heard conversation between Spanish guy and 2 Argentinian girls. He was wondering, how come they speak so well Spanish..? Girl was, like: In Argentina we speak Spanish. Really? - guy was really surprised. It made me laugh really hard. Dude, most of South America and Central America speaks Spanish! Not only in Spain people speak Spanish...
I also noticed that in Galicia people are not that nice, as in other places that we had been.. In quite few places (bar, albergues and restaurants) we were treated quite rudely. And this makes me upset. We both with Nastya speak Spanish, but a lot of pilgrims a don’t. Why are people so rude? Anyways, people are different!
Today also was funny, when Nastya said, that we all look so ugly with ponchos and backpacks like humps. I replied, that yeah, we look like camels.. Nastya said: but camels are more beautiful… (I’m not sure about it! At least we don’t smell like camels)
It was a long day! Hope that tomorrow will be no rain..
