Today's stage took us down tiny back roads, rocky paths and grazing pastures. At times, the rain was so heavy we took shelter next to a hedge wall or farm buildings. Speaking of farm buildings, the countryside is littered with old stone, ruin-like buildings ... guessing 100-150 years old. Most nothing remains but the gable ends in stone and sides - no roof. Others have had obvious renovations throughout the years, with rusted corrugated roofs and some remnants of timber with slate.
We met several other hikers along the way today - a young German couple who started the leg before ours yesterday in the rain as well, so this was their second wet day. Reminders of our honeymoon! Also met 2 couples from Holland and another couple who were breaking for lunch - didn't chat much with them.
Will let the pictures tell the rest of the story.
Km hiked = 23.7
