2April 16th Galeria to Porto

Early start as a 50km day today. Absolutely stunning again. Not much more to say, lovely steady climb to a 406 metres col. Then mainly a freewheel down, with a bit more up and down towards the end. Lovely campsite with little spaces that one could ones own and we found a table and chairs so very comfy. Then unfortunately we lost the broadcast of the Tour de France (scrabble) that's what happens with ITV 4........shall bring it to you when normal service resumes.










April 17th Porto to Salonge

Started with a long quite steep climb up to Piana. No prizes for the song that was going round both our heads. Luckily cloudy during the ascent. Stunning again,and at the top are Les Callanches de Piana, rock formations that are other worldly. Piana a lovely little spot for a nice coffee stop. Then it was a long free wheel down. Countryside becoming less rugged now. Salonge a little seaside place. 4 star campsite, very reasonable. Unfortunately only an indoor pool with young people in it, the only downside, so no where to sit and chill. Early night as feeling more and more tired.
