Lost journal and guidebook

Camino Frances - June 2014
Hi all, just a quick one. Anyone who stayed at the large benedictine nuns albergue (can't remember the name plus lost the guidebook!) did you by any chance pick up a brown leather bound journal and a annotated Brierley guidebook?

The journal is obviously the most important as it has two caminos of entries! Willing to take a bus back to collect it or bank transfer cash to have it posted home. Found an email for the albergue and sent them a similar message, as the phone number doesn't seem to connect.

Any info would be appreciated. Would just really love to get it back.

Thanks in advance,

David
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

In what town or city did you lose these books? There is more than one albergue run by Benedictine nuns on the camino. Good luck in finding them.
 
Oh wow, it's been a long day! Leon sorry! Pretty vital piece of info missing there!

No reply from email today, so just if anyone on these forums knows any of the people working in said albergue and could drop them a message that would be amazing!
