Day 30, Sept, 29, Samos to Barbadelo

The walk from Samos was mostly along wooded paths. We had a lot of sections of walking uphill followed by a similar downhill section. Many times we would just look at the uphill section in front of us and know in a short time we would be walking it downhill again! We ended up doing 106 flights of stair equivalents.

Somehow we got off the Camino route a short time today. We don’t know how we got off, but at an intersection we didn’t see any arrows, and also noticed we hadn’t seen any yellow arrows for a little while. Steve checked his app, and could see we were really close- soon we saw a stream of people with packs on and saw Camino markers. We started walking that route – which ended up to be a longer route and added 2.5 miles to our planned walk.

We are at our destination at Casa Barbadelo. We have a nice room and the grounds are a very nice place to relax. We also have a cool pool to soak our weary feet! Ahhh!
