just a warning to others travelling currently on a tight budget. Many of the municiple albergues are closed in this stretch. The large donativo in Ponferrada is open. Albergue Medina in Camponaraya closes on a Tuesday as does Albergue Molino in Cacabelos. In Villafranca the municipal was closed as was the inexpensive La Yedra. In Tradabelo the parroquial was open and possibly the municipal - its bar appeared open. Other places are closed but are marked as such in Gronze or Buen Camino.

In addition, it was very difficult to find a place open early in the morning (ie before 10:00) for coffee if one didn't have it in the albergue between Foncebadon and Trabadelo (which is where I am at the moment).
