Memories of a walk on the riverbank of the Sarela river

in Wednesday Walk3 years ago


Today is #WednesdayWalk, and don't let my friends of the #dreemportchallenge hear me. But these days, I haven't had the chance to go for a walk. And since I didn't have a new walk to post. I thought, why not bring some memories of a walk some time ago that I would love to store in the Blockchain.

This walk I'm going to share was done in December 2019 when we visited my sister-in-law and her family in Santiago de Compostela in Spain.

One morning that dawned on a sunny day, a rare thing in Santiago's winter. We took a walk along a route away from the tourist circuit of the city.

We started in a neighborhood named Santa Marta, where some modern buildings stood out, contrasting with the nearby constructions.

This neighborhood is adjacent to the campus of the University of Santiago de Compostela, which we pass through as part of our walk.

Leaving the Campus area, we headed along Costa do Cano street towards the Ponte Sarela.

We came across one of the typical signs used to mark the route for pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago, before crossing the bridge.

In this part of the walk, we covered a small part of the route used by pilgrims leaving the town of Santiago and heading to Fisterra.

We crossed the Ponte Sarela and walked the route which took us along a rural road that goes along the river. We visited the ruins of an old stone mill that is on the way.

We followed the route along the banks of the river. We had the feeling of were walking in the rural countryside, but we were only a few meters away from the historical center of the city.

On the last part of our route, we came across the Casa de Los Gatos. A little house located in an area named Carme de Abaixo, and well known in Santiago, where a lady of German origin lives with her cats. And it is also a shelter in the city for stray cats.

After leaving the Casa de Los Gatos behind, we walked a few more meters along the riverbank before crossing a stone bridge similar to the previous one. But this one led us to the streets of the downtown city, where we continued our tour, but that will be a subject for another time.

Such a beautiful walk thanks fir sharing with us

PS I am in Dreemport but I won’t say anything 😂

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)

My pleasure to share :)
Jaja! Don't worry:) sooner or later, everyone will know the whole truth. It will be revealed on Friday in my report 😂😂

Jaja? I know in Bosnian that means Eggs, with my Nickname being JJ I got called Jaja a lot in Bosnia LOL

Eggs! LOL. In Spanish, Haha is Jaja 😂😂
I didn't know you were from Bosnia. I thought you were from the US.

Have a nice day!

Ok that makes sense
I am originally from New Zealand but now live in the States but I worked fir a couple of years in Bosnia

don't let my friends of the #dreemportchallenge hear me. But these days, I haven't had the chance to go for a walk.

I heard you 🤣🤣🤣
ME thinks someone needs more Encouragement!

The pointed monument looks like the hats they wear as their uniforms at Semana Santa!

The Sarela river looks awesome and what a cool walk, I love hearing water when I walk Super Eli😁

🤣🤣 It is not an encouragement issue. Monday and Tuesday, I was still really exhausted. And today, I don't have an excuse. I didn't walk but went for a coffee out, LOL. ☕️☕️

It was a nice walk. I also love hearing water. Not only while walking, but anytime, it makes me feel relaxed.

Yes water is calming, the sea the river I love it all.
hehe you still have time for a walk or is it too risky at night?

I can walk here, there's a big area inside the residential area, and I don't have to go out. I was thinking about doing that. I still have time before I have to put on my chauffeur's hat. 🤣🤣 I have to pick up Rodrigo and Carlos, who both are out.

Chauffeur Eli 👒👒👒🚗🚗🚗
Did you walk, I bet you didn't 🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣
Good morning, Ed!
You don't have to be lucky Ed to win that bet 😂😂
Have a great day!😄

hahahahaha good morning lazy bones 🤣🤣🤣
I wish you a wonderday day today and just to let you know, I clicked submit for my post on dreemport at 11.59pm last night 🤣🤣🤣 JIT Ed made an appearance 😲

Hahaha, I read you sis, and like you, I haven't been really active too this week.
What a rich walk you had. I just imagined the sound of the water over those rivers.

It was a nice walk, sis!

And well, will see that report on Friday 😂😂 I don't know how I will do it without mentioning the forbidden word F...🤣

Haha, I was thinking about it too since it will be the same day for the PUD. But yeah, we can do it, lol!

We can do two posts :) Anyway, mine for the challenge will be short and I can't say sweet 🤣🤣😂

Haha, that we'll do :D Cheers sis!

Stunning walk @coquicoin. The campus and the old trees. The river…
A little part of the route from the pilgrims.
I never visited that part of Spain yet, but hope we do one day.
Thanks for taking me along. It’s a beautiful area, with lots to discover.

I hope you can visit someday. It's beautiful 😍 And the food is so tasty, well as in all of Spain, jeje. But better if you go in the summer when it rains less. 😄

Thank you @coquicoin 😊
2 weeks ago we were in Madrid for a few days. It was to short of a trip to go further. Maybe next time.
Yes, love the food here. And every region is slightly different.
I could escape the heat of the south in the summer and go up… who knows, maybe. 😉

Thank you, have a nice day too @coquicoin

Lovely memories Eli, and how lucky are we that we can store them here on Hive!
It's fascinating to see how people live in other countries and seeing the different architecture as well.

I love it too to be able to store our memories in Hive 😊

Hello, sis! Good evening to you now!! The challenge this week is going so far so good :)
I hope you feel better today 🤗

I hearrrrrrd you!👀 but it's okay. We all have our days.

Your walk looks fun. I bet you had as much fun? And thise buildings (the first image) looked a lot like butcher knives and then the second like a toothpick...😆...

Remember to have some quiet time and maybe take a relaxing cup of coffee? Tea? Whichever you prefer... Hehe.

Lovely post @coquicoin 😊 I've also been in Santiago de Compostela with my grandparents once. I was a child so I don't remember much but I do remember the feeling of being impressed by the architecture 😊

I hope you're having a nice day even without your wednesday walk 🤗

Santiago has beautiful architecture, and its cathedral is so impressive.

I did have a walk today. It was last Wednesday that I skipped it;)

Enjoy the rest of your day!🤗

I will try not to report you 😂 but it's great that you did went on this walk. Seem like so much fun.
