Llanes to Ribadesella about 29kms

Llanes to Ribadesella about 29 km
Best meal so far last night and a real surprise given that we were in a tourist town.  I started with a rich veggy stew that inc a fried egg and mike had a paella. Both were large servings and very tasty. I then had hake in verde sauce with chips and peas and mike had chorizo and egg with chips. Both finished with creme caramel. All for 20€ inc a bottle of red. Good walk today although a little longer than planned. Intended to stop at Cuerres where I had been told there was a pension but we did not find it so had to walk an  extra 7kms to our final destination. It was a pleasant walk along a lot of limestone cliff tops and through fields and woods. A little road work as well but we avoided it where we could by using the E9 coastal path if suitable or google maps. Fortunately, on the way we spoke to a German couple and he had walked the route last year and said there was a very good hostel at our final destination. Managed to find it without any real trouble and it is directly on the beach! In fact our room, that cost 25€, has a sea view - see the first picture on today's blog. 1500 by the time we got here so have just done the washing and the other daily chores and i expect we will go in to town later to look for dinner. Did contemplate catching a bus back to last nights restaurant as it would probably take less than an hour!! Off towards Sebrayu tomorrow but as that is 31kms we will probably stop beforehand! The second picture just shows we had to rough it sometimes. The final picture is the obligatory beautiful beach one.
