Last night before the bedtime at 2200 having beer with Johannes aus Bamberg (studying to be a teacher in History and French) and Ulrike aus Saarbrucken (?), David and Matrha from Washington DC and Anja. Friends friends everuwhere when you need them. Johannes had a knee problem and Ulrike some kind inflammation in a overstrained ligament in her left foot. Urike is having her resting days in León. Johannes bought a walking pole and is going to continue tomorrow.
Martha and David decided to return home and are waiting for the night train to leave for Madrid. We changed e -mails and are going to keep in touch.
Leaving early in the morning walking by the Parador on San Marcos Square. It was not easy to find out your way out of the city but finally Anette an d I did find the yellow arrows which show the way to us to Virgen de la Camino.
On the way to Virgen there are many bodegs like these. Sometimes when you buy a house in Spain you will become an owner of an bodega (wine cellar with a terrass), too. Many of these were well kept and in use.
My first meeting with Francesco who whistled after me - I was walking in a wrong direction. Thanks!
And Graham a teacher from Sydney, walked all the way from St Jean Pied de Port.
13 days later on we arrived in Santiago and were very happy!!!
A sign post on the way to San Martin. It was a hot day and a long walk. The last three hours in the afternoon were almost killing hot.
I stayed at the Albergue Vieira - Fran told that the municipal was closed.
Vieira is all right - nice garden and washing clothes was ok - close to the highway. I was sun- bathing the rest of the afternoon.
I met Angela and Alberto from Mallorca, Dani and Manu the young kids from Bilbao, Fran from Malaga, Fra from Italy and the Spaninsh family here for the first time. And we were to follow each other on the trail from now on the end.
You want to buy an albergue - this could be your choice!!!
Storks in the church tower.
Albergue Vieira and the daily obligatory medical foot care after the afternoon routine of making your bedm washing clothes, taking a shower and eating a bit.
In Vieira everybody spoke Spanish so I really had to concentrate just to understand what was said.
To sleep early and I packed my rucksack well so everything was ready for toworrow abd for an early start.
