Started in Astorga sunday now just arrived in Herrerias
Very tough going carrying 10kg and over the mountain from Rabanal to Ponferrada 34 km
Today not so bad
Will have full blog and pics on http://www.roryp.com

Finally getting there-got all the gear and back pack should be no more than 8kg- getting bus from Madrid to Astorga on 19th and then heading for Rabinal for first stage-aiming to arrive in Santiago 30th-looking forward to meeting up with fellow pilgrims along the way all going well!!

Hi all,
my name is Rory from Wexford Ireland starting in Astorga in May.
great forum and information, thanks to all for the helpful hints for a first timer
Can I get a Camino passport when I arrive by bus in Astorga to walk to Santiago?
OR can I apply by post/online before I travel to Spain...
