Day 30: Pontevedra to Caldas de Rei

Pontevedra to Caldas de Rei

Distance: 14 miles / 23 km
Total: 318 miles

Notable memories

The distance

Today I realized that I had hiked over 1000 miles in Europe. Adding up my last four Caminos, I hit the 785 mile mark. About 4 days ago I reached 225 miles on this Camino. So that was the day when I broke the 1000-mile barrier of hiking in Europe.  Pretty proud of myself. So right now I'm just short of 1100 miles with only 25 miles to Santiago and the end of this year.

Today's hike

The wrapup

The plan for the next two days: tomorrow to go to Padron and spend the night at the monastery in a traditional Pilgrim support albergue; next day stop 6 km short of Santiago and the following day to head in to Santiago at sunrise.

Spend Thursday in Santiago and catch the train to Madrid in the afternoon.

Friday in Madrid. Saturday board the plane. And Sunday I will be back home.

That will mark the end of  Camino 2018.



Just one of those many pretty little churches that I passed by
