We have not been eating breakfast on the Camino because our experience in Spain was not great. Usually we got just coffee and bread. But we decided to try a Portuguese hotel breakfast and were pleasantly surprised. Cavaleras de Cristo gave us freshly squeezed orange juice, toast, coffee, cold cuts, yogurt, fresh fruit, tarts and boiled eggs. That's fuel for the engine. We walked through lots of wooded hills today with flowers and other vegetation interspersed. In Susie's books this has been the best hiking on this Camino. Alvaiazere we decided to stay at the albergue just to experience a hostel in Portugal; it's been great. We are in a room with double bed and shared bathroom; no dorms here. Four people who we met earlier on the Camino are here as well. In a way we are lucky that there is little to see in this village so we can spend more time resting. The picture shows our host with our embossed stamps as well as our wax stamps.
