Staying at the albergue next to the river estuary, now frills here. All the private accommodation is fully booked due to the high number of pilgrims. Two wet but enjoyable days walking.

Got here.
TravelerFeet are perfect, legs are strong only one day of a bad back but feels OK now. It has been hard work to find accommodation and we are currently in an albergue 1 mile out of town. There are no beds under €260 per night in the whole of Santiago. Pilgrims are being bussed 4 miles out of town to a disused holiday camp to give them beds. I have never seen the whole town completely full!
Salvation, again

My soul is saved again as I have just attended a Catholic Mass specifically for the blessing of pilgrims. The swinging incense burner is so large it requires 6 men to control its swinging.
