Day 32 – this is a horreo which you see all over this area around (city Palas de Rei). They are used to store grains or dry goods and are on platforms to keep them away from rodents and water. Prior to knowing this, I speculated pilgrims that couldn’t make it to Santiago were put in these containers to keep from having bad press. May 16, 2025 by Patricia M · Published May 16, 2025
Day 30 – Portomarin – took this picture from the town of Portomarin to show you the reservoir and how it is well below the city. Crazy thing is that the city used to be down at that level. In 1962 they moved the town up the hill! The towns most historic buildings were dismantled stone by stone and reassembled above where the city lies now.
