The cold has set in just as we are approaching our last mountain before Santiago. In fact it snowed on that mountain last night. We have one full day of hiking left before we start the climb so we can hope for it to melt by the time we get there. I bought winter gear at a thrift shop in town yesterday. Got another good night's rest after a furnace of a room in Ponferrada the night before. Cold might be on its way out if I can keep my core warmer than was possible yesterday. We managed to arrive before the rain which was great. And last night a few Brazilians cooked up a huge pot of marvelous risotto for us. We met them while enjoying some wine just before our last 9 km leg of the trek. It may be getting cold but I am loving the comeradery on this trail.
