Would you like some flies with that shit

After we visited Toad Hall we visited Samos, a medieval monastery. It is a huge building in a beautiful green valley. There are still monks there, in fact there are like 14 or 17 monks there. The monastery walls are covered with murals both ancient and modern. Hmm, someone was playing the flute there, it was really pretty. We went on a tour. Inside the church were some paintings of some wise monks from the past. One of them was¨"Anselmus". He was the funniest wise man because he had on some weird goggles! We have a picture of him that we will post when we get better internet.

After that we continued walking to Sarria. Anselmo was hungry. We walked through some tiny cow farming villages. The streets were covered with cow shit! That is one of the features of Galicia. Anyway, Anselmo decided to stop and have lunch in a little cowshit village. The cafe really smelled like cow shit! The cafe was full of flies!!! Flies were getting fried in one of those electric bug-zappers. There was a TV screen which was covered with flies! I don´t know how he could eat in there. I could only imagine flies walking on cow shit and then walking on the food. I could not imagine eating with that strong smell of cow shit in the air. Anselmo happily chowed down. Maybe I was not cut out to travel the world with him, LOL.
