Peter Pank closes shop

Just a link to a local news article, detailing the closure of a well known bar/shop along the last 100km of the Camino Francés. It was most memorable for the wall of painted shells it offered to pilgrims... and a funky stamp.

It looks like the owner is retiring, and the second in command doesn't have the strength to carry on by himself (he is close to retirement too). Let's see if someone else steps in to keep the place open.

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
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.
Yes I noted that it had closed which is a shame as they sold a wide variety of stuff, many of practical use for pilgrims like ponchos thanks for bringing it to our attention.
