Moving on in Lisbon

Today was not a good day, and I was wishing I was home 😥💔.
I started on the trail today. I didn’t go too far, about 8 to 9 km. Half of it was uphill, and I am still within Lisbon. Tomorrow I will be out of the city.
I have been anxious to meet up with other Pilgrims because we are all like-minded. But I think it won’t be for a while. There are so few people walking this Camino, that they really aren’t geared for it much. In fact, I never saw a single yellow arrow except for the first one at the Cathedral. I had to use a map and my phone GPS, which was a bit challenging. I hear as it gets closer to Porto in the north it gets better. I hope before then. There are no albergues (hostels for Pilgrims). That’s what I’m looking for because they cater to Pilgrims in so many ways, not the least of which is a Pilgrim meal each evening where we can meet so many people. But apparently that won’t be for several kilometers/miles out of Lisbon. Instead I’ve been surrounded by so many tourists for the past two days. Really missing the Camino Frances right about now.
It has been an emotionally tough day.Baca lagi
