Day 28 – Sarria to Portomarin

Another day, another hill. We started out from Sarria this morning and it was still a little foggy. The first hill was almost out our front door and up the steps towards the monastry.

For a while we walked through fields and over hills in the fog, it eventually cleared to be a nice sunny day.

Most of the walking today was through tree lined tracks or on quite country roads.

When we reached Portomarin we had a very long bridge to cross over the river, where the town used to be. The original,town was flooded about 20 years ago to make a new reservoir. The new town is across the river and half way up the hill.
