My wife and I are planning 114KM in 3 days: Sarria to Portomarin to Palas deRei to Arzana to Monte Del Gozo to final destination: Santiago deCompostela. We both hike, swim, run mini marathons and feel this can be done. Is this overly ambitious or not? Perhaps we should shorten and take our o/nite train to Portomarin from Madrid instead of to Sarria as starting point?
Should we chop it up evenly, staying overnite after each 33 Km, or is there a better way? And we're looking for nice hostel/hotels with a private room/bath though it does not have to be fancy. Ideas?
Also we're a wee bit concerned about our poor command of Spanish -- we've some Spanish phrases, but should we expect to meet some English speakers? Am figuring we should drop into the pilgrims Mass each morn to c onnect with folks. My wife also speaks French.
