Meaningful Moment

After making it to the hotel, felt like I went into a complete physical shutdown. 

Deb and I did made it downstairs to eat something and take a walk on the beach, but as soon as we returned to the hotel, I grabbed a shower and went right to bed to lay down. 

Didn't sleep, but didn't feel like I could move. Perhaps physical exhaustion?

Random Thought of the Day

Mostly flat at the beginning, but steep descent at the end. Started sunny, but turned cloudy to ease the day.

The long descent was kind of hard on the feet, but came out okay.

Deb and I walked around Corcubión and found a really nice place for dinner along the shore.

Scallops for me and hake for Deb.

The atmosphere was relaxing as we talked a bit about how much hiking we had done.

After dinner, Deb and I went back to the hotel restaurant and sat along the beach again in order to have a pastry and a decaf before calling it a night.

On the Road / Notable memories

Made it to the water finally. But it's not the Atlantic Ocean quite yet. It is the Ría Corcubión, although technically to me, it seems more like a bay.
