9/5/23 Cortica to Alvaiazere

After planes, trains and automobiles, we had a tired 6K walk from Cortica to Alvaiazere.

Most of the walk was on cobblestone county lanes.

Carlos Pinheiro owns the Albergue we stayed at and he takes a lot of pride in his special “credencial” (pilgrim passport) stamp……cleaning the bathrooms…not so much.

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.”…..Mark Twain
