From Ribadeo to Vivero:
We are heading westwards along the top of Spain, and will turn the corner southwards in the next few days, going around Cap Ortega.   The town of Ribadeo is a very sad place, with amazingly intact medieval buildings being pulled down and  replaced with ghastly concrete flats, this happening in a wholesale manner across the town.   I can't understand why they are doing this, and suppose they just don't want these amazing old buildings.   It is unbearable to see this happening in this day and age.
 
On a lighter note we are looking forward to meeting Freddy in La Coruna on August the first.    He will be staying with us for a few days whilst we sail around the Ria.  If anyone wants to use him as a postman he can bring mail etc.   He can be contacted on 07771995686.  Thanks Fred!!!!!!!!!!!!
