Pola de Allande to Berducedo

20.5km
14.30: Terry arrived and booked in at the albergue in Berducedo. The phone signal is very weak here, but he managed some news.
It has been raining all day and very wet, so a shower and dry clothes were first on his list; then he cooked some pasta etc. The albergue is very good; 10 beds - all filled up by this evening. The heating was on and everyone's things were drying nicely.

Today's walk took Terry higher still as he headed towards Berducedo. He took a photo at the pass 1140 metres up, but the visibility was only about 50 mts That's life!
He is aiming for Grandas de Salime tomorrow and planning to stay in the hostal there for two nights. A rest day on Monday (and maybe the internet). Then there are only 3 possible stops before Lugo.
The landscape and towns/villages of the past week remind him of Dartmoor, around Princetown and Two Bridges. Some 'villages' have only one or two houses.
