April 2024 Via de La Plata Sevilla start
Flew in yesterday to Sevilla. My driver is a fellow Pilgrim. He was totally thrilled when he found out my plans to walk the VLP. He has done 3 Caminos by Mountain Bike. His first ended in a crash where he ended up with a fractured skull almost died and was in an induced coma for 3 days. He was unable to walk, talk or see when he woke from the coma. He slowly recovered. However was terrified to ride his bike. Eventually completely recovered and overcame his fear. He has now completed 3 Caminos. He attributes his recovery to the power of the Camino.

Staying at Hotel Simon. Highly recommend it. A bit pricey due Semana Santa and Féria day Abril. Excellent location if you have time to spend in Sevilla.

Picked up my credencial and have to Cellos. One from the hotel and one from the Cathedral
If you are inclined to go to Mass, do so. It is in the Royal Chapel. Ask the guards for the proper entrance. Entrance is free. If you go to the 0830 you can wander the Cathedral afterwards. Thus, you avoid the entrance fee and crowd of tourists.

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
Oh thanks for the info about pilgrim mass. I missed this when I was in Sevilla.
And I think I would choose Hotel Simon next time - I got my credential there and it looked great.
May you have a blessed Camino
