    Holy Year & Feast Day

    I'm sorry, since my original post dealt with questions about the Holy Year, I thought it would be ok to add into my first question. Since this would have been my first Camino, in this Holy Year, I don't have any pictures to post, but fear I never will now, and feel very sad about that.

    Holy Year & Feast Day

    What a wonderful memory! Thanks for sharing! While this would have been my first Holy Year, I now wonder if the Camino would have any resemblance as before? Will one always have to be masked, even while walking? Will one need to have the vaccine to even enter Spain?

    I do not mean vigil in the liturgical sense, but more in the general sense.

    Holy Year & Feast Day

    I'm sure I will find another place to stay, however, with not staying at the Parador I hear that I will need to arrive at the square hours before to make sure I am in, because once full it will be closed off.

    Holy Year & Feast Day

    Yes, walking from Muxia/Finisterrea, and that is my hope, that it would not be as crowded. That is awesome you could get in on the 25th! I have told Rui at the Parador, I would take any room if it became available on July 24th!
