Christmas on the Camino

Planning from SJPdP 2015-16 winter
Merry (belated) Christmas from the Camino Frances! I wanted to share two photos from the wonderful Christmas dinner that they hosted at the Burgos Casa de los Cubos albergue on Christmas Eve. After having only seen two other pilgrims in the previous five days (and knowing both of them would not be in Burgos), we thought we may alone there. We were happily surprised- Several longer-distance pilgrims, as well as a few ending a week and a few beginning a shorter section. It was a wonderful dinner- two hours of lively conversation, and then the hospitalero took us to the midnight mass at the big Cathedral. Wonderful!

Got back home two hours ago this evening. Christmas in Santiago is like a dream. The Pilgrim House folks invited all pilgrims to a Christmas party there. I was informed of the party by the pilgrim's office. Great place too. Thank you Gail and the others (sorry.... I don't recall your names). Great food and lots of it and happy times. We went from the party to Midnight Mass. Simply beautiful. Thank you St. James.
