Ribadesella to La Vega Sept 14, 2010 10 kms


what was supposed to be a short hopover the mountain carrying our wine and dinner and breakfast food, turned out to be a bit longer when we followed the arrows instead of the book. By the time we realized that we had taken a wrong turn, we were 3 kms DOWN the mountain from our planned destination and had arrived at a beautiful beach village called La Vega. So we took time for a drink, summed up our options and quickly took a room in the nearest bar which overlooked the most magnificent beach so far.
Our first aperatif was on the beach with the sun shining and the waves crashing and such a wonderul environment that we realized this was where we were supposed to end up on this day.
We had a wonderful night in an empty place with no one even wanting to drink and party in the bar below.
So we wer up early and on the way to La Isla for coffee along a beach track that was worth the diversion the day before.
Such is the camino. It takes you to where you need to be
