I went up early and tried to navigate out from the albergue, but had some problem with the GPS that only locked occasionally. However we found a place to have breakfast.After the breakfast the GPS still didn't want to cooperate. So while walking through the village I took out the batteries. But the memory card disappeared at the same time. And I couldn't find it.All of a sudden I had all friends searching and calling for the help of San Antonio (de Padua). He will help when you have lost something. And he did, so I found the very small and black memory card. Now my GPS worked well. So I could lead the company.
After a while we split inn smaller groups. Me and Marc went together. Thinking back it was an uneventful walk.We gradually approached Ourense that is a big city. We had morning coffee in the middle of an industrial area. And then criss-crossed small villages that eventually became a rather hilly city and city streets.I tried to find the cathedral but failed and had to ask. Eventually we found it somewhat anonymous and the uphill also the albergue in the San Franciscan monasterio. We were the first come. Eventually more of the others showed up. An evening with tapas close to the cathedral.
Here my problems with the Tientu SIM card started. It could not be used for datacom. No credit(??) I could not use that phone any longer. And since it was late Saturday I could not fix it. It came at the worst time. I have to wait until Santiago and meanwhile use my expensive Swedish SIM.
