7 May we started in
Monforte de Lemos to Chantada. The Parador was a nice break but disappointing. The dinner was very ordinary and the service below par to other paradors we stayed at. Breakfast was very good in the parador - as always. We had an issue checking out as they charged us 100€ to wash 2 pairs of pants, 2 pairs of socks, 3 undershirts, 2 handkerchiefs, 2 pieces of underwear and one shirt. I’ve filed a complaint so let’s see where that takes us. Due to Palmas’s knee we decided to take a day off from walking and took a taxi from the parador at 10:30. It was about a 30 min ride, cost 40. Chantada is a nice town - much more lively than some of the other towns we’ve been in. Tomorrow we have a short day, about 4 miles, and then we get back on track to walk normal amounts each day to get to Santiago on Sunday. We went to 3 nice bars here in Chantada and would recommend all; Cafe Capitol, Bar Mar y Bellota, and Bar Parada. Bar Mar and Cafe Capitol were closing at 3, Bar Parada’s kitchen is open until 11:00.
