Downshift Musings

Early Bedtime

It’s not even 7:30 pm and Tristan is in bed asleep and I’m having trouble keeping my eyes open too.

We had a good day. We started before dawn with a big climb out of Grado.

We passed through country that was lushly green, with sheep, horses and cows, cute villages and some rushing streams.

A number of the folks we met yesterday were planning to super-stage today (walk more than the recommended distance) due to expected bad weather in a few days. Tristan and I stuck to 22.5km and were happy we did.

We arrived in Salas to find the town full of people who came for a medieval fest today. Renfaire of Asturias?

We snagged the last two hamberguesas from the food truck, some local cheese and some sweets for a meal. Our hostel offered a communal vegan meal which I thought looked delicious, but Tris didn’t want pumpkin soup.
