Another beautiful day. I’ve not had any rain so far. The downside is I’m getting some kind of bronchial yuck. Started taking my Z-Pack antibiotics and we shall see. I think all that heavy mouth breathing walking through cow manure dust didn’t do me any favors. But, meanwhile, I went for a walk today!
Good morning from MorgadeWalk walkAnd walkOops. I am the arrow walking and the Camino is the green-dotted line.I was confused. I was seeing arrows, but no people.Aha! I had missed my arrow and turned onto the Camino bike route. Luckily, it soon joined the walk with the people.Well, hello! This little dog sits on the wall and quietly watches everyone pass by.This is the route I swore not to take. But there I was. This is the historic descent used before the river was dammed to create the Miño reservoir.I sat on my rear three different times to get down this thing.After walking across the long bridge over the river, these stairs immediately call you. I would show a picture of the bridge but I had to turn my head and watch the road to keep the tummy butterflies under control.San Nicolás church was dismantled stone by stone from its original site (which was going to be flooded when the Belesar reservoir was built), numbered, moved, and then rebuilt in the new town of Portomarín.The inside of San Nicolás, also known as San Xoán de Portomarín (or San Juan / San Nicolao).Domingo de la Fuente Cela served as the parish priest of Portomarín for more than fifty years and was a key figure during the relocation and reconstruction of the church.And finally, who thought this was a good surface for a street!? Ouch.
