The rain in Spain falls mainly on the ----- mountains!

The Camino followed the roadside for a few km out of Trabadelo. The asphalt is hard on the knees and the views boring after yesterday's heights. Fortunately a young Brit, Bertie, kept my mind off both inconveniences with his chat and a cafe con leche on the way. 
When he forged ahead we hit a much more attractive but muddy path and I was left to enjoy the views and (much) softer and more slippery path.
Just before I reached today's destination, Laguna, I thought I smelled a dairy. Sure enough down came some cows followed by a farmer, his horse and his dog. He wanted to talk about my Camino. I managed to understand some of the conversation and hope I said "Si" and "bueno" in the right places!
