I was 55km from Santiago, 15 from Arzua which I already knew I don't like, and 35 from Pedrouzo which I also knew I don't like. So after 11.5 hours I reached Santiago. An hour later I reached the old part of town.
Once I got here I was worried about finding a place to stay. Only the most expensive places are open after 10PM - the rest give guests a key to the front door. I was looking for a place that I found on Trip Advisor that was €55 and had a rating of 7.9. Not ideal, but given the hour I would have been happy to pay it. But I couldn't find it, and ended up stumbling past this place called Pensione Liganes where the owner was locking up. He had a room for €40, and had a booking.com plaque with a 9.1 rating. 9.1 is pretty exceptional. The place is perfect.
Anyway, walking to get something to eat put me over the 60km mark for the day, which blows away my previous record of around 42. Stepwise, it will be just under 80,000. A big day.
