2005-2017 Delightful 346 days in Spain and France.
- Time of past OR future Camino
- 2017
Just finished a short Leon-SdC walk and stayed in the much reviled (at least in 2004) Albergue.
It looks like a set for Blade Runner II or some other futuristic dystopian movie. Only the top 3 Quonset huts are being maintained as the albergue (only one needed to be opened). The whole rest of the 30+ building complex is closed/abandoned. No restaurant, no cafeteria, no vending machines, leaves blown into all the building doorways, etc. Its been a long way down since opening in 1993.
The others I was walking with stayed in some newer alb--maybe San Marcos run by the Polish ?? confraternity.
Weird!
