You'll definitely have to walk that way the next time you do the Francés. It was one of those towns where I thought "I could live here."I have regretted twice not choosing to take this variant. I especially love the last picture of the monestery nestled down below.
Jill,
No, they are attached to wire; no roof.Was there a roof above to which they were attached?
The thread that I started last year has become rather long, so here's a new thread to post pictures, musings, etc. from any year for any dates in August on any Camino.
When you respond, please mention the year, route you were on and where you walked (or rested) that day. Thanks!
Also, if you are posting multiple pictures upload them as thumbnails.

I too stayed in that alburgue on my first in September 2013. The communal meal was amazing. Some, including myself had a small Christian service in a tiny room in the back, used for such an occasion, given my the host. Very peaceful. The wind howled through the night. I recall it rained too. But the next day was magnificent. I love your photos. Yes, the village was much different in 2019 when I passed through.August 11th 2013-Camino Frances
Astorga to Foncebadon
Stayed at the parish albergue in Foncebadon. Domus Dei. Very rustic and basic, as was the entire small town. I remember a communal meal put on by the albergue that night and the albergue was full. In just a couple of years more albergues will spring up and some paving of the path occurred. Hope the small town is faring through the pandemic ok.

You were just a few days ahead of me on my 2016 Camino Frances. On this day I walked from Palas de Rei to Ribadiso. That was a very warm and dry Camino Frances for me. No rain the entire time, from SJPdP to SDC.15 August, 2016 -5 years ago today - between Negreira and Santa Mariña
A misty, moisty morning.

We never needed our rain gear that whole Camino either. It did occasionally rain a bit but always at night or while we happened to be in a bar. Even for this photo, it was more fog than rain.You were just a few days ahead of me on my 2016 Camino Frances. On this day I walked from Palas de Rei to Ribadiso.

The view of the Cathedral on the way to the coast is the best!14 August, 2016 - 5 years ago today - just past Santiago de Compostela.
One last lingering look at the cathedral on the way to Finisterre.
