[QUOTE="greggy53, post: 870991, member: 24467"] Hi all, I've been travelling around the North of Spain for three weeks now, I start my Camino Frances next weekend. In all the time I've been here it has felt much safer than the UK. Everyone is wearing masks, keeping distance, even smoking has been banned from bar terraces as they believe it spreads the virus. You just have to use common sense here, don't eat/drink indoors in bars or restaurants, stay outdoors and keep distance as much as possible. I have no regret about coming to Spain and now looking forward to starting my Camino next week. There has been more testing in Spain hence why the cases have rose, so you really can't compare the graphs to the start of the pandemic as the were only testing people in the hospital back then. Spain eased the lockdown two or three weeks before the UK and as of today nearly 3000 cases were recorded in the UK. There's going to be the same amount of cases in the UK as there are in spain soon. Luckily the death rates are right down in spain and as I read earlier on another post, theres probably more people drowning on the spanish coast than there is of people dying from covid 19 at present. Yes there's always a risk, but no worse a risk than going about your daily life in the UK. I don't think anyone should cancel there plans to come and walk here, especially now when the Camino is so quiet, its a rare opportunity. [/QUOTE]
