The weather reverted to the usual Atlantic westerly type with intermittent rain and coolish temperatures but was, with hindsight, good preparation for the similarly variable Galician tiempo.
Our final few days consisted of a trip to the northwest of England for a family gathering with loads of hot sunshine and very little in the way of training. Some of our family group had had long practice walks from Liverpool to Southport (about 18 miles) and some us had none at all. So it was we set off to Spain, half of us from Gatwick and half of us from Dublin on the morning of the 20th May to begin our "Camino" starting from Sarria the following day.
