The third day is the worst



Day three to Colombre
They say the third day is the worst. We walked  for 12 hours (27 k) I don't think I have ever been so tired. There was a lot of asphalt walking which is really hard on the feet. The hostel was full so we had to walk a kilometer further to a pension. My feet will never be the same.


Day four to Llantes
Much better today. Most of the walk was through the woods along the coast. Absolutely gorgeous views. When we saw Llantes in the distance we were very excited. The hostel was full again so we stayed in a pension again..$17 a night each. We had some of the famous Asturian cider. It is poured from a distance of 4 feet..a dramatic performance.

Our destination in the distance...Llantes

Sore feet



Notice the old bridge on the right and the new one above.
