Astray…

 

Day 14 - On the Camino de Santiago from Oviedo to Aviles.

My epiphany has come to fruition, the detour to the Asturias region has changed my conception of Spain, its lush in many ways, (probably due to all the bloody rain) very agricultural and much better, friendlier people and the food…Jeez, iv been blown away with the local produce, the portions, the quality, the taste and the value served with an unpretentious attitude.

I even sptted another brother from a different mother…a boaters bike!

Iv learnt to trust Velo2 directions, brilliant for finding cycle ways and short cuts, through parks and back passages, but I thought I’d been led astray today and taken a wrong turn somewhere when I arrived here…?

Through this unassuming wooden door was like going up the ‘Magic Faraway Tree’ into a wonderful world known as ‘Sideria’.

In here I experienced delightful regional cider, that was traditionally served and tasted fantastic so then couldn’t resist indulging myself in a kilo of pork ribs …don’t usually take pics of food, out of principle, but this was basically what was left….delicious!

This bicigrino will sleep like an angel tonight.

Eggcelent service David O??

A bit of John Bramwell (Aka I am Kloot) with a mellow end the day track for you to enjoy-this fella is a proper singer songwriter.
