Camino Day 2: 13.0 miles. After the previous evening's rain, we set off in glorious sunshine on a shorter stretch to Betanzos. We stopped briefly in Pontedeume to get our Credencials stamped at the police station. The weather kept us guessing, but on the whole a really nice day's walk.
We liked Betanzos. Our hotel, Hotel Garelos was excellent, and everybody we met - at the hotel, the tourist office, restaurant and bar - was really friendly. The Parque del Pasatiempo had to be seen to be believed. Unfortunately it is now in need of some serious TLC.
Our meal at Meson Pote was one of the best we had - the tortilla was to die for! Peter and I rounded off the evening in a bar watching Chelsea beat Benfica in the Europa League final. The owner then showed us his photos of Stamford Bridge!
