Thursday 16th October.
It was raining as I departed in the morning in the half light. It kept on raining throughout the steep ascent out of Betanzos and it rained and rained. You can tell when it is afternoon as the rain intensifies. I had a break at Bar Julia for lunch, then ventured into the rain finally arriving at the restored peregrino hospital in the pouring rain, absolutely soaked through. Cook pasta for dinner and try to dry some clothes. The portugues peregrinos using gps say the day was 32kms not 28kms as in my guide book. It rained all night.
