The day started out with the potential for walking in fog through the mountains, but it never came down the mountain and started to clear by the time we got underway. We followed alongside the river for a while, through small villages and Hamlets, generally walking up hill.
We stopped at a very old and small church, Janice lit a candle.
The horses were getting ready to go as we walked through Las Herrerias.
After Las Herrerias we left the side of the road and started up the mountain. At times the walk was steep, but we managed it.
From time to time our way was blocked by cows, with farmers moving them along the track between paddocks or after milking them.
The view behind us was breathtaking.
We had one small panic moment, when we couldn’t find our Pilgrim Credentials. We found them in my back pack.
Here in O’Cebreiro there is a church that is claimed to contain a grail and relics, where during mass, the host and wine turned into flesh and blood (of Christ).
