Day 1: Matosinhos to Vila Cha (16.25km)
May 22, 2019
16.25km completed - 245km to go Route MapWe have completed our first day, covering 16.25km in perfect walking conditions - hazy sunshine and a light sea breeze. En route we met many other pilgrims from various parts of the world, including a woman from Kilmacolm, about eight miles from where I was born. She left Scotland about the same time as I did and has spent her life on Vancouver Island.
We are planning an even shorter day tomorrow but then the pressure will increase as have to do 262km in 15 days. In 2011 we did it in 12 days over a slightly different route.
