Day 24 – Molinesca to Cacabelos

This morning started out with a trek from Molinesca to Ponferetta. I did come across a flock of sheep next to the road that were bleating loudly, I guess they were as impatient for their breakfast as I was for mine.

She reminded me of Shari Lewis' Lamb Chop

I was looking forward to touring the Templar castle. I arrived outside the castle after 10 am and the castle was not yet open.

Rather than hang around, I continued on my way. The walk today was relatively flat with nothing noteworthy. I snapped very few pictures but did spend some time petting a cat that was sitting on the trunk of a parked car.

I stumbled into my hotel in time to leave my pack and go next door to the bar for lunch and some well needed vino tinto.
