Verín to Baiona

We are overlooking the Atlantic tonight. We are in a Parador inside the Fortaleza de Monterreal overlooking the town of Baiona. This harbor is where Columbus’ ship the Pinta made land fall after Columbus and his fleet discovered the Indies. They have a replica of the Pinta in the harbor. It is very small!


We walked around the walls of the fortress this afternoon. 


When Duke was originally making reservations he wanted to stay here two nights but tomorrow night they were full so we could only stay one night. We wondered why they would be full in the middle of the week after Valentines Day. When we arrived we found out. They are setting up for a big conference of Coloproctologists.
