17.58 miles, 41,095 steps, 4 cats 

Oh man, this day was a little…overambitious. To say the least. The PLAN was to walk 16.5 miles. (Already a lot.) The reality was a little over 17.5 miles. Not sure how that happened lol. I think I stayed on the boardwalk too long when I should have made a turn. Oh well. It was the ocean! For miles! And sun! And wind blowing the entire time!

I am so so so tired. My hips are killing me. I have a huge knot in my neck. Went to the Farmacia and got some heat patches so can’t wait to wake up feeling better!

My feet are feeling good(ish). I did stop for two hour-long rest breaks, plus stopped to down a quick espresso a couple times when I needed to use a restroom at a cafe. (It’s only fair to buy something.) The route I was on today was pretty sparse with long stretches between cafes/beach clubs. Tomorrow looks to be more populated. 

Picked up some falafel and fries and Coke Zero for dinner (no Diet Coke anywhere to be found here). 

Honestly don’t have much more to report. Need sleep. Bye!
