Tomar

It did rain today and we did make it to Tomar. We had looked forward to the walk today as it would take us through some beautiful forests. It was crazy and beautiful at the same time. There had been a fire in the last year or so and the trail over the mountains was no longer present. Our guide book gave instructions but needless to say we got to a point where we could no longer follow the instruction it gave. I am married to a wonderful navigator who was trained by the Navy in celestial navigation. I knew I was in good hands. We found our way out and then walked along the N110 which is the national highway. And, it was raining like crazy.

We found a restaurant on the side of the highway and went inside. It was Sunday afternoon and everyone was dressed in their Sunday best. Despite our wet and disheveled appearance we were welcome in. We ate a lovely meal of fish, potatoes and green salad. Everyone was kind and helpful to us and we had a lovely time. We were exactly where we were supposed to be. We got a ride into town which was about 6km and checked into our lovely hostal to dry off.

We have decided to spend a little more time here and explore the area. It is home to the Templar Castle and the area is enchanting. We are doing well. We are learning so very much about ourselves and hoping to know more about what God would have for us. You are loved... Buen Camino.
