Navia - Tapia de Casariego

19 kms

We had arranged with our German friends to meet them at Tapia, as the albergue was right at the top of cliffs. It was quite an easy day of walking, so we arrived pretty early.

We made it for the meal of the day, after organising a key to open the albergue and settling in.

We had heard from Harold about the joy of a 'Paella Marconsa' - paella with fish. As we were in Spain, it's the traditional meal. So we dived into our pockets to order this expensive meal. Being at a harbour, the fish was fresh. Oh my goodness, rice, a whole crab, calamari, exquisite king prawns, mussels. We ate and ate. Had all these funny instruments to eat this meal, the crack the crab shell and weed out the meat.

Sadly our German friends did not arrive. We hope that they are OK?
