Day 32: Palas de Rey to Ribadiso aka Pulpo Fresco
Upon leaving our ´hotel,´we located a bar to have coffee and zummo OJ. It wasn´t raining until about 10 minutes into our trail. Having a cold, this really put a damper on things (no pun intended). Luckily we had stopped at a pharmacy were I was able to get some herbal medicine. I was also able to get a refill on my prescriptions I had on me. Why is the US Healthcare system as corrupt as it is? For example, I got 30 Tramadol tablets for 5 euros without a prescription or insurance. Must be nice, Europe. Must be real nice. Unfortunately, no Z-pack without a prescription.
Day 29: Fonfria to Sarria aka Zummo!
Our albergue may not have had any gluten-free breakfast options, but it did have a Zummo vending machine. Take note: Christmas/Hanukkah/Birthday wish-list only includes this vending machine. In all seriousness, we knew that real food was 12 km away, and that we couldn’t afford to skip out on two meals like we did yesterday since we were completing 23k today. Therefore, we sat for an all-American (ha) breakfast at a bar in Triscaterra, 12k in.
