Recap of San Salvador, part 5

 Hello, everyone.

After our rest day in Pola de Lena, we set out bright and early in the morning en route to Mieres del Camino. This was a short day, because the "standard" day goes all the way into Oviedo from Pola, and that's over 30 kilometers. Mieres breaks the day in half, and has places to stay and to eat.

A view of part of the trail; it wasn't difficult and was pleasantly shaded for some parts.

Santa Olaya, a lovely church in a town just before Mieres.

The priest was in and he stamped our credenciales. He also said that we were welcome to visit the interior of the church.

There was a bakery near the church so we got to sit down for a little coffee and rest.

This is the info sign about the church. I believe the second language here is Asturian but I don't know for sure.




















When we got to Mieres, we had a pleasant walk through much of the town to our hotel, and then we went out for a glass of cidre.
