Things are looking up

Amazingly my health continued to improve overnight despite the hours walking in the rain yesterday---and after raining heavily for most of the night,it was a fine day today.We ended up the only ones in the 5 bedroom house (host next door). Anne cooked a wonderful pasta and veg and ham dinner and then backed up this morning with scrambled eggs on toast.We had just got up this morning --pitch dark--when there was a knock at the door.Four Italian pilgrims had got lost and couldn't find the arrows. I went outside to direct them and they had a tiny baby in a large pram, doing its first Camino . We got into Villafranka about 10 for coffee and then decided to take the more difficult option and climb the mountain--very steep---walk 10 kms along the ridge of the mountain with spectacular views and then do a steep descent at the other end.We are staying in a little village at the bottom of the descent---Trabedo. Tomorrow we do the last major climb of our trip---the climb up to Ocebriro.
