I suspect this question has (a) probably been asked before and (b) could probably be answered with the words "every albergue is different" however I will ask anyway.......
My wife and I are starting the French Camino - our first Camino - on August 2, less than a fortnight away now! Our plan is to try and leave every morning before 8 and walk about 25kms arriving in our preplanned destination around 1pm, The main reason for this is that we really don't want to be on the road in the afternoon heat. I vaguely recall reading a few weeks ago that many albergues do not open until the late afternoon. Generally speaking - is that correct? If not, approx what times could we expect to find albergues open?
I realise we could call in advance and book our place for the night - if we do that, are we able to drop our bags at the (closed) albergue before looking around the town/village/city?
Thanks all for your patience & help.
