Tapas!

Everyone arrived safely. Lots of getting to know each other conversations, greeting old friends and making new ones.

We’re not in Spain but in honour of the fact that we are walking the Camino Inglese – the English way – which has Santiago as its distant destination – we enjoyed a Spanish tapas meal to get us started, including Rioja, manchego cheese, iberico ham and much more.

I discovered just how much 15 people can eat in one sitting when it is tasty! These plates had to be refilled!
