It was a beautiful cloudless day on the Caminho. A little windy but beautiful nonetheless, the temperatures were moderate. We began with layers which quickly became peeled off.
Breakfast was good for the majority and a carb load for the minority.
We were chauffeured from Porto to Matosinhos where we began our Caminho.
After 5 miles or so we stopped for lunch.
A seafood soup but not what was ordered. We ordered vegetable soup – Oh well so much for ny command of the Portuguese language.
Dinner was in a local restaurant in Vila do Conde. The Villageois.
A beautiful very locally inspired meal with olives and a gorgeous tuna pate and homemade bread as starters.
Followed by Portuguese fish and chips
Fried cod-fish with homemade potato chips (otherwise known as crisps)
Followed by dessert, naturally.
Crene caramel and chocolate mousse
I neglected to mention the beautiful vinho Branca, but it too was wonderful.
We are now fueled for another wonderous day on the Caminho Portugues.

Angela, she’d have to do something to keep up eating all that yummy food! I’m not much into dessert, but that looks so delish!! 🙂

Haha Britta, according to my Garmin I walked off 897 calories yesterday, guess that equalled one of the desserts.
