Having agreed common wake-up time of 7.30, Ave Maria greets us, followed by Rodrigo's Guitar Concerto ... group breakfast and fond farewells for 28km stage with altitude. .. snow capped mountains close by ... consideration of coming choice of high level route with 360 degree views plus danger of snow, wind and poor visibility for arrows and vistas ... a decision for the morning ... current forecast suggests an early and swift ascent may beat later storm, but let's see ...

Two and a half hour walk along muddy tracks brings Tineo and coffee, plus review of today's options, basic and possibly austere Berres or 3km before two other albergues in Campellios ... three hours or so away and shared with Daniela, philosophy and psychology making the time much shorter ... vegetarian menu del dia and cosy ambience wins out, while Daniela pushes on for Berres ... and Emily arrives for lunch ... in Albergue, three French, Spanish, Australian ... Irishman in hotel, Italians seen passing for 3km to Berres ...
