- from Astorga 2021; from SJPP 2023
I am in Peduoso and walking into SdC tomorrow (God willing). I started in Astorga on July 3. What a beautiful experience it has been! Notes: 1) Most albergues and bars open, especially in Galicia. But do carry some nuts, fruit, energy bar to be a meal just in case of unexpected bar closure. 2) Walked alone most days and only two pilgrims at a couple of albergues. 3) Found lively company several times, though no communal meals (kitchens are closed). 4) Walked within sight of other pilgrims only today (Arzua to O Pedruozo). Two school groups went by. 5) Most fellow pilgrims are French and Spanish, with a few other Europeans. I am one of only 5 from USA that I met. No Brits or Aussies crossed my path —wait, maybe one? 6) Wayside churches are closed.
Enjoying every step!
