River Umia at Caldas de Reis |
Caldas de Reis is a Spa town, and the pool in our hotel is beautifully heated by the thermal springs. The water comes out of the ground at a constant 40C, and it was lovely to put my foot into a wayside Fuente Termal. Anyway, here are some 'photos, so you can see what the town looks like for yourself!

This is an outside place for washing clothes, and the water was steaming. We have seen a lot of these on our journey, but only one person using them. |

The Camino crosses the Barmana River, which also flows through the town, on the Puente Romano. We are still following Roman Road XIX. |

The Parish Church of St. Thomas which, like so many churches and chapels on our route, was disappointingly closed. |

The Church, which was surrounded by an avenue of palm trees. |
