Arzua

Just a around 45 km left now, left Palas de rai at 5am. Using a head torch to find markings can get a little difficult sometimes but stayed on route with the torch, it gets light here about 7:45am. I think I was the first pilgrim on the road so found a place easy enough when I got to Arzua. Had only one break today and that cost me a couple of new blisters, but have stitched them up to drain and so feet should be good to go again to tomorrow.
 
Also managed to get a spanish sim from movistar, however the pre-paid sim SMS to uk are 0.71 euros per message so have quickly run out of credit, I must practice short form texting. Ive topped up and will have to just use for emergencies for now. I.ll look at getting a better deal in santiago.probably with these chaps ...

Met Kiera and Nora again at Aryua, they are doing ok a coupel of blisters but looking forward to next week on the beach. I also ran into Caroline a lovely french Canadian lady who does not speak english so we have broken conversations in my bad french, she will make Santiago on thursday as will I, she however has been walking since Le Puy in france about 1500km. Some of the other people ive met on this trip have been, katerina a german woman that started walking from germany in April, an reallz incredable woman. George a great Dutch man who having walked the Camino Frances 2 years ago, started again this year as an experiment to test his new hip!

Again thanks for all the support, LB your doing a great job Im very proud of you. Finally sorry if these posts are riddled with spelling mistakes, most of the pc.s are locked to spanish, however this one today is a spanish keyboard but set to german, so very much hit and miss what each key does.
