Charlie took this photo yesterday as we were walking under a freeway (or probably toll road) between Fene and Pontedeume. I thought it was a great photo.
I’m not sure how well it captures how tall and huge these concrete pillars are that hold up these super highways.
It seems we are never too far from a super highway and it’s not uncommon to walk under them like this. Here’s one we walked under today before arriving in Miño.
Great shot indeed!!! Glad you two are having yet another delightful pilgrimage.
Hey, RJ. Great to hear from you. Yes, I’m looking forward to seeing that photo on a large computer screen instead of just a little phone screen.
I am amazed that the pillars seem so to rise up out of a forest floor. In the US, it’d probably be all gravel or paved.
Yes they come right out of the forest. It’s amazing how many charming little villages have these huge massive turnpikes looming above them. It must have been quite traumatic to these people when they were built.
