Painted stones on the way


We started the day with fresh orange juice with oranges picked from the tree and a hearty breakfast prepared by our friendly hostess. Setting off, we noticed that the area had old wooden store houses on stone "mushrooms", similar to Wallis in Switzerland. The route was mainly cross- country, past some massive mansions, as well as traces of medieval pilgrim ways. We also met a surprisingly friendly sheep dog. Also of more, we were greeted by the singing us for some distance. of a robin, which followed Ribadesella didn't seem all that interesting the tourist information was closed, as were most of the shops. we did however meet an Australian couple again (add blog) and had a hot chocolate on the esplanade before doing some shopping at a supermarket indicated by a green dinosaur. The ate is famous for foss relics as well as prehistoric cave pai tings. We walked on to the Albergue at San Esteban de Leces, about 4km outside Ribadesella. There we met quite a few pilgrims from our earlier encounters, as well as some new ones. We ate a simple but delicious meal and retired to bed.
