I arrived at the albergue in Comillas around 2.30 today. There was already a group of perhaps 40 sitting around waiting to see if they'd be allocated a bed. There are 24 beds available. I left and booked a hotel room for the night.
I've walked from Irun and have got to know some, and recognise others, from our 'wave'.
There were a lot of new faces in the queue. Where could they have come from?

My guess is Santillana, having saved themselves the walk from Santander.

I'd booked a room for the first night in Hondarribia. After that I'd no trouble finding an albergue space unyil yesterday. The first part of this Camino is through s very popular holiday area and that's reflected in the price of privately owned accommodation. It's not going to be cheap.
