Photos from today in Lugo
Lugo wall from the outside. It completely surrounds the old town (population 3000, about 100 acres in size.) Total Lugo population 100,000. Was built in 3rd century AD to protect the Roman town then named Lucus.Street scene inside the old town. Some magnificent buildings.Street in front of our hotel. (Hotel ALBA Lugo)Charlie in the wall windowThis is our third time to spend time in Cafe Celta in the Lugo old town. They are open every day from 7 am to very late. Always busy. Three times as much seating outside on the plaza next to the kid’s playground. It’s been a great place to come for breakfast and tapas and to blog. We’ll be back for breakfast tomorrow morning and then head out on the Camino.Outside seating for Cafe Celta. These are 95% locals I’m sure. In all these Spanish towns, the community gathers in the evening.

Picky Henry here: the walls are 3rd CENTURY AD.
Also, love the street life at the Cafe Celta. It’s what we love about Europe.

Oops, did I say BC? I knew I was AD. Will fix. Thanks for pointing out that error.
Oh, I see what I did. 3AD vs 3rd century AD. Only a couple hundred years too early. Oops.
