Nice weather starting off

Today marks the fifth day of my walk. The weather is perfect, and I've set out on a 19km trek from the quaint town of Caldas de Reis to the picturesque Lestrove.

However, a slight hiccup in my plans occurred today. My destination was supposed to be the charming town of Padr贸n, but as my accommodation is in Lestrove I didn't make it to Padr贸n. Despite the detour, I couldn't muster the energy to venture into Padr贸n in the twilight hours to explore its hidden corners. It's a bit disappointing, but such is the life of a wanderer.

As for the culinary delights of the day, dinner at my cozy guesthouse fell short of my expectations. The food, unfortunately, didn't live up to the charm of the place.

Despite the minor setbacks, the journey continues to be an exciting adventure.
