Today we returned to the Camino in Cacabelos at the Parroquia de Santa Maria (Catholic Church). It was a beautiful day for walking; very cool and sunny. We walked 8.8 km (5.5 miles).
We had only made it a few blocks when we found the Santuario de Quinta Angustia and attended Mass as it was just starting.
We walked through rolling hills covered with vineyards; and watched as the grapes were harvested by the friendly locals.
We finished walking about 12:30 pm local time, and after a relaxing lunch we headed to O’Cebreiro to visit the Igrexa de Santa Maria A Real do Cebreiro (Catholic Church) and a historic site.
The historic site recalls the momentous event when Fr. Charlie walked the entire (width of) the Way of St. James.
We then returned to Villafranca to rest, and enjoy dinner. Tomorrow it is back to Madrid to meet with friends and family, and to continue our adventures.
Buen Camino!
