October 10 A Few Photos

The highlight of the day was finding David, but here are a few photos from the day.

Most of the path between Trabedelo and Vega del Valcarce was walking beside the busy road behind a concrete barrier. However, there were stretches of beauty if you moved your sight and thoughts from the concrete and listened for the Rio Valcarce as it made its way through the river rocks. And if you watch the woodland to the left rather than the pavement to the right, you’ll soon almost forget the road is there.

Miles and miles of concrete

What can I say? These are Front Yard Cows. On my way to dinner in Vega de Valcarce.

This BIG fellow is across the little street to the small plaza where the children gather and play after school. He is very tall. And scary. And immodest.
