Lunch in Lires ...

Blablacar continues to occupy time, as possible driver with Fisterra address inspires search in the real world rather than the tricky virtual one ... though address seems not to exist ... anyway, as patience is exercised with another full day to book the ride and no boat or train depending on the first step, two more nights are booked at La Espiral and the Monday evening boat will return on Wednesday if alternative transport is required.

A stroll out with options  open uncovers Audrey setting off for Lires and an interesting conversation ensues ... her life as daughter of US secret agent in Japan and Indonesia, as police officer investigating child abuse, now early retired at 55 and enjoying the Way slowly ...

At Lires she heads for hostel ... menu del dia sets up 12 km return via coast and a steady day's walking in dry, sometimes sunny weather ...

Back at the hostel a new batch of pilgrims arrive, including Colline from France,  who left Le Puy two months ago ....

More home cooking from yesterday's shopping appreciated by incoming pilgrims and Bernard, French hospitalero ...

Clocks change tonight ... no pressing engagements to demand attention to that ... just Blablacar to sort, or bus alternatives for Wednesday's sailing ....
