Sarria to Portamarin

Today we had a casual hike from the bustling town of Sarria, along rolling hills and through small hamlets with that every once in while gave glimpse to quaint embedded Roman churches.  Lunch was had with a strong espresso and tuna pastry as fuel.  We finished rather early in mid afternoon, and after finding a Albergue to stay at for the night and cleaned up, we walked around the village.  Historically, the town was relocated during the Franco years from the banks of Rio Míno up along the east bank due to the construction of a dam up River.  Walking down below revealed a bridge still passable far below the modern viaduct the public drives today.  Also along the banks and in the river lay profound ruins of what Portomarin prior to its relocation.
