Campo de Geres to Emaus-Camp 3 to Camp 4


24 Km walk mostly along old Roman road.Our bodies have changed since starting this arduous journey-we are both burnished by the harsh,relentless rays of the Portugese sun-we are lean and hard-we have had to make incredible sacrifices just to maintain body weight, eating up to 5 or 6 large meals daily and consuming vast quantities of local wines.
Romans turn out to be sensible as they built their roads on the level.Rain for last 2 hours, but tolerable. We are the only guests at Casa Emaus-long chat with innkeeper and our cook prepares delicious dinner-grilled veal . Thank God wehave usual supply of carbohydrate-bread, chips and rice!
