Las Herrerías → O Cebreiro

Today was all uphill. 2,285 feet over 5.5 miles. But, it wasn't bad, lots of fun. The best part was on the top. We visited Santa María la Real in O Cebreiro. It was there that a eucharistic miracle happened in the year 1300. Below is a picture of the chalice that is still there today.
