Light rain, not much more than mist, made it cool and rather pleasant to walk for the first hour or two. The number of walkers seemed to be less than on previous days though once the weather became warmer that seemed to change and the paths were crowded with walkers.

A couple from Sri Lanka thanked me for suggesting a treatment to prevent toe blisters several days earlier. I gave them the benefit of my experience with the compeed lubricant, when we had talked just before arriving at Portomarin several days ago.

The countryside I’m travelling through is green,damp and cool. It’s much more comfortable walking than it was two to four weeks back.
