Walking notes by Rob Steele Stevie was able to once more join us in Lugo, his blisters had healed sufficiently to allow him to continue walking, so the 3 of us left Lugo in the mist on the short days walk to San Roman de Retorta. The "Way" was mainly on minor roads passing quickly out of Lugo and through many small villages en-route with opportunities for coffee and lunch in friendly bars
