It's May 1st and we left Barcelos and walked to Ponte de Lima. This was probably the best day of walking on the Camino Portugues as it took us on backroads and dirt paths for much of the way. We really noticed an increase in the number of peregrinos after Porto. In many ways it has made it more fun because we encountered the same people several times and have extended our conversations. Thus, we had a pilgrim meal with Ambrose, a Canadian, Carlo, an Italian and Nora, a German. We had lots of laughs. Although the walk was over 34 km it was not particularly taxing and we were checked in, showers and laundered by 5 pm. Today we saw lots of flowers, grape vines with fruit just set and granite fence posts
