Llanes to Oviedo

Wednesday 5th:
We left Llanes on the mid-morning FEVE for Oviedo. There is snow on the higher mountains and the rivers are in full flood. Earlier in the week, in some areas, the snowploughs were out. The weather is still forecast to be cloudy and wet.
It was bitterly cold when we arrived in Oviedo and walked into town. Last year Terry stayed in a pension here, near the Cathedral, so we went there again. A late lunch and then a siesta was the plan. Valerie wants to visit the Cámara Santa and the Cathedral of San Salvador, the starting point of the Camino Primitivo. Also there is a saying that 'He who goes to the servant, without going to the Master first, goes to the created and not the Creator'.
