Ok
Hi GettingThere, thank you so much for saying something. Yes, I was a bit confused! LOL! I just talked with my friend who walked the route last year (and stayed at several of the place I stayed at) and now I see that I'm nowhere near the town of Lugo, BUT the bus ticket I have goes through...
Ok... Thank you for your help! The address of where I'm staying is show as LUGAR LESTEDO S/N (CASA RECTORAL) 27216 PALAS DE REI (LUGO), 27216 Lugo, Spain. Does this make more sense, then?
Hi GettingThere, I am planning on walking the Camino pathways. I'm taking the bus to Sarria to pick up the trail. I can do that, right? First afternoon, as soon as I arrive, I'm walking the Camino a short distance to Vilei. The 2nd day I am walking to Portomarin. 3rd day to Lugo, then bus to...

I would love to know an app that doesn't need connectivity to translate. I have Google Translate (I'm on an iPhone)? I use it ALL THE TIME with my gardener who doesn't speak english. I speak or write what I want, it translates it, then audibly speaks to Jose for me. :-) Couldn't live without...
Thank you for pointing that out, Theatergal! I didn't realize Lugo is also a province, which makes sense since the article is about Mondoñedo. Walking the wall sounds great. Thanks for mentioning that!
For those of us who will be going through Lugo...

I will be there on Good Friday. If anyone knows a website that says what that day will be like, please let me...
I am traveling alone and staying in hotels (only traveling for a few days). If I don't stay at the communal albergues, would I still be able to pay to share the communal meal?
I LOVE reading how many vegans are on the Camino!!!
Just let restauranteurs know "Soy Vegano(a)". :) And in case you are heading to Madrid at some point, look how veganism is abundant - https://alternativetravelers.com/ultimate-vegan-guide-to-madrid/
