On their bucket list, these two American women have drive this vehicle. Maybe I’m being generous calling it a vehicle. As for me, my bucket list includes walking to Porto. Who’s taking the bigger risk?

Hello my walking friend. Porto is perfect for a rest day. I have made reservations from Porto to Santiago as there are fewer affordable accommodations along the Coastal Route. Only two days will exceed 25km. Several people asked about you. I now am walking with a totally new set of pilgrims. I’m glad I wasn’t able to mail my down sleeping bag home as I have needed it. What a change in the weather. ~linda
