1st stage Porto - Lavra 23.5km
I'm finally in bed (it might sound cozier than it is) and I have a super greasy pilgrim meal in my stomach. But hey, at least I walked about 45,000 steps and covered a good 25km (or more). I have to admit that about 3km were pointless because I actually got lost on the first day..., but I won't tell anyone. 🤫 Yes, yes, sense of direction and all that, but the book actually says: "With a good sense of direction, you can't miss the way." Hm, so have I been lying to myself for the past few years? No, no, that can't be!
The route ran along the beach all day (except for the short section where I got lost 😂) The area is really beautiful and there is no greater feeling than people in Porto wishing you "Buen Caminho". It feels good and who wants to complain when you've seen almost 20km of nothing but sea, sun, and half-naked men jogging on the beach. 😉
