[QUOTE="trecile, post: 1213003, member: 52787"] My experience at the end of June was similar to [USER=31995]@David Tallan[/USER]'s. I also joined the Francés from the Primitivo at Melide. I spent the two nights on the Francés at Boente (5.6 km after Melide) and at Albergue Astrar (700 m off the Camino at Santa Irene). Other than the group that I was walking with I only saw two other pilgrims (also from the Primitivo) in the first hour. We got a "late" start at 7 am. All the other boots and shoes were gone from the albergue racks by the time we woke up. At Albergue Astrar our group were the [I]only[/I] pilgrims at the albergue. Yes, there were more pilgrims than we had seen during two weeks on the Primitivo at every bar that we passed, but there were also empty tables, and everyone seemed to be served in a timely manner. Most of the "new" pilgrims were walking with such joy and excitement that it was contagious if you were open to it. I remember one older woman in particular who was so thrilled to be there. Although she walked slower than anyone else - she was doing it! [/QUOTE]
