      Day 10 - Iria Flavia to O Milladorio

      6 lipca 2022, Hiszpania ⋅ ☀️ 68 °F

      Big to do tomorrow!

      The anticipation is killing me.

      Today was a good walk to essentially the door step of Santiago de Compostela. We had a great night sleep mainly because the hostelier returned to check on the Pilgrims and turned the AC on. He noticed I had opened all the doors and windows to get some air and had mercy on us. We got up at 5am to leave at 6am. We packed our backpacks and had a cafe con leche at the albergue. We bandaged our toes and feet and started walking to O Milladorio.

      We decided to not go all the way because we would not have arrived at Santiago until possibly late in the afternoon, tired and hungry. That’s not how we want to arrive. So, we stopped here only a short 7-8 km tomorrow morning in order to arrive between 8 and 9 am. That’s before most Pilgrims. We easily saw 100 or more pilgrims on the Camino, the vast majority of who were going all the way today. Mostly from Padron. It took every ounce of patience I have to not join them.

      Overall, it was a pleasant walk. The last part was pretty much uphill all the way. We got a few pics, but mostly talked about tomorrow and what we would do and see, what Pilgrim friends we would run into etc., etc. The excitement kept us going in spite of the hills trying to drain our energy.

      So, we are here now in O Milladorio. We are staying in another very nice albergue. Less than $20. We had some beers and good food (pizza!) and great conversation.

      I even had the opportunity to sign in on zoom for my Wednesday morning Bible study. I received some final prayers before my afternoon nap.

      Tomorrow will we arrive in Santiago. In my mind the trumpets will be blaring and there will be great rejoicing by all the people. Since Jesus arrived on a donkey, I think that’s a little too much to ask. But the joy will know no bounds.

      For now good night and God Bless!

      BUEN CAMINO!!

      Nearly there

      17 lipca 2023, Hiszpania ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

      Started the day early thanks to Mr Snoreandwhistle and Mrs Flashlight; I have had better nights' sleep. Anyway, it gave me a good, if a little chilly start. First half of the 15km walk definitely more up than down.
      Some lovely small villages with narrow cobbled streets, wooded lanes and then the approach to the city. The walk through the suburbs is quite long, but into the old part and it's much more interesting. Many narrow streets dwarfed by the grand architecture of the cathedral and it's surrounds.
      Arrived in time for the Pilgrim Mass, so went out of curiosity, having had to make a mad dash to the left luggage office as backpacks weren't allowed in. Knee giving me gip so eventually found a seat at the back. Such a ornate cathedral and huge. The service concluded with the swinging of the botafumeiro, which was quite impressive.
      Next a visit to the Pilgrim Office to collect the compostela and then a light lunch.
      Somehow added another 7km finding accommodation; I'm staying in the Monastery overlooking much of the town and can just see the spires of the cathedral.
      Tomorrow should be a rest day. Finistère will have to wait for another camino.       Czytaj więcej

      O Milladoiro!

      7 lipca 2023, Hiszpania ⋅ 🌬 70 °F

      We have arrived at the Albergue Milladoiro, which is SO much better than last nights stay and only 6 euros more! We have decided to stop just short of Santiago De Compostela today. We are less than 3 miles away, which will be an easy walk tomorrow morning and we can beat the lines and crowds of pilgrims that arrive a bit later! As you can see the sun has come out once again! It’s supposed to rain tonight, but no need for ponchos, yet! Czytaj więcej

      Padrón - O Milladoiro

      23 września 2022, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

      Ich habe heute ganz vorbildlich bis 8 Uhr geschlafen. Aufgrund der immens hohen Preise entschied ich mich nochmal eine Nacht außerhalb von Santiago zu übernachten und morgen früh die letzten 7 km zu laufen. Das hat den Vorteil, dass ich dann früh in Santiago bin und so hoffentlich den Massen ein wenig entkommen kann. So die Theorie. Auf jeden Fall bedeutete dies, dass ich heute nur eine kurze Etappe von 16 km vor mir hatte, daher konnte ich es mir erlauben, später aufzustehen. Ich frühstückte noch in einem kleinen Café und machte mich dann auf. Es ging durch viele kleine Ortschaften und eine davon war ein Katzenparadies. Noch nie habe ich so viele gutgenährte Katzen in einem Ort gesehen. Das lag wahrscheinlich daran, dass sie in einem Unterschlupf immer entsprechend Essen vorgesetzt bekamen - Katze müsste man sein.
      Und dann sah ich sie: Menschenmassen. Beim Annähern erkannte ich, dass es Jugendliche waren, bestimmt 100 oder mehr, die wohl einen Ausflug von Padrón nach Santiago unternahmen. Schöne Idee! Das Überholen gestaltete sich allerdings schwierig auf den schmalen Straßen und beim Vorbeilaufen fühlte ich mich dann wie in Peking, als Attraktion der Kiddies. ‚Hello‘, ‚Hello‘, ,Hello‘ von allen Seiten. Geschafft! Puh! Heute ging es wieder viel bergauf und bergab, letzteres mögen meine Knie nicht mehr so. Der Duft des Weges war eine Mischung aus Kohl und Zimt, ich glaube das sind die Feigen, die so süßlich riechen. Hier gefällt mir letzteres definitiv besser, nichtsdestotrotz macht der Kohlduft wieder Lust auf einen leckeren Eintopf. Als ich in O Milladoiro ankam aß ich erstmal was und brauchte eine Siesta, weil ich so unfassbar müde war. Was man Körper braucht, soll er auch bekommen - schließlich hat er mich in den letzten 10 Tagen über 250km weit getragen, einfach unfassbar!       Czytaj więcej

      Back to our albergue!

      8 lipca 2023, Hiszpania ⋅ ☀️ 70 °F

      We wandered the streets for a bit around the cathedral, but we are SO tired! After around 225 miles of walking and often uphill…the legs and feet complain constantly! 🤣 We attended mass at the cathedral, thinking we would sit, but they kept having us stand for long portions! Our Irish friend, McDarra, finished his Camino just about 5 hours after us, so we met up for lunch… and more sitting and watching the many pilgrims arriving! Not long after that we agreed we are lacking energy for sightseeing, so we took a taxi back to our albergue in Milladoiro for a nice evening of R&R. Czytaj więcej

      Tag 21

      21 kwietnia 2021, Hiszpania ⋅ 🌧 11 °C

      Im strömenden Regen haben wir heute Santiago de Compostela besichtigt. Sicher wurde die Altstadt vor Corona öfters besucht als Heute, waren wir doch fast die einzigen.
      Im Anschluss wollte ich mein erstes Brot im Omnia Ofen backen. Nachdem ich mein Schweizer Urdinkelmehl geduldig eine Nacht quellen lies und anschliessend dem fertigen Teig genug Zeit gab um sich zu entwickeln, wollte ich Resultate sehen. Das Brot an sich wäre Top, nur leider bringe ich es nicht aus der verdammten (so artikuliert man sich an einem Pilgerort eigentlich nicht) Form... Hätte ich mir doch noch die dazu passende Silikoneinlage gegönnt😩 Czytaj więcej

      One more step - Day 19

      27 kwietnia, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 8 °C

      I’m one of the last to leave the albergue.

      But that’s because everyone’s advised me to book my Santiago lodgings asap as it’s getting busy. It feels a bit presumptuous for my liking but I do so.

      I also look at the map to see how far away the Camino is from the main road as well as elevation. I decide if my foot is too much I will head back to the road for the bus.

      At this point I know I’ve done everything I can do all I can do to make it.

      And I’m not too sure now why completely the Camino means as much as it does. It has gone beyond the original reasons for taking it on and something has taken root. Perhaps devotion to something outside myself, a commitment to transformation or completion. I don’t know. I just know I want to get there by my own merit.

      And today I want to shave off as my kms with my own feet.

      So I set off in the rain. The busy road making me acutely aware of how lonely this feels.

      My pace is slow. And I’m aware of those behind trying to overtake me. I come up against hills with roots and stones as a path. I go slower not wanting to jar my foot again.

      I continue up. I think about stopping at some cafes but I say no, wanting to gain as much distance while I can.

      Although I do stop for a coffee. I realise my credentials got wet. This upsets me. But I decide they should be weathered afterall.

      The sun comes out and layers need to come off. But I’m still painfully far from where I need to be. A 2 hour walk has already become a 3 hour one. I am fed up. My body hurts. My feet hurt and I also can’t sit down without intense pain thanks to the bike. So there’s no position which is comfortable. I can only put one step in front of the other and be proud of any distance I do, closing in on Santiago.

      I decide to start the Camino podcast. As a relevant distraction to the length of time ahead of me.

      I am half tempted to try for Santiago. Worried about what could go wrong between now and tomorrow morning.

      But I arrive at the town and head to the albergue instead, after going to the church as you reach the town. My penultimate day of stamps.

      I am emotional at the thought of finishing, but I remain feeling a little weary of tomorrow - as if I can’t quite believe I’ll be done tomorrow and this is over. A 20 day memory, over.

      And what will await me on the other side of the Camino…       Czytaj więcej

      Almost

      28 marca, Hiszpania ⋅ 🌧 8 °C

      I'm walking with Paula and Niky today. Its miserable weather. The rain is relentless. Its also freezing cold on this section and we can't seem to get warm. When our spirits are getting down we see this church where pilgrims are going inside so we investigate to see if we can get a stamp. It's a gorgeous little church. We get stamped and wonder our way to Santiago cathedral.

      As our moods are down because of the weather conditions we decided to get caffeinated. The coffee is great but the seating area was cold because of the automatic door.

      There are lots of pilgrims in this section. We walk pass a few and some pass us. We're all looking miserable for these last 10km. We're playing a game of slot the interesting number on the way marker.       Czytaj więcej

      Walk to Milladoiro

      3 października 2023, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

      Well not long to go now. Only a 7km walk in the morning to Santiago de Compostela, so should get there fairly early then try and get to the noon Pilgrims' Mass.
      A very nice night in the Monastery albergue last night, and met some nice people at the communal dinner, including German sisters, a Turkish/American woman, a Kiwi teacher and two of three Swedish twin brothers. Dinner was very nice, just salad and soup, but the hospi's were very hospitable 🤔. The night could have been better, but we went to a half hour Mass at the Monastery church, and a blessing afterwards which was nice, but then a volunteer took about an hour, using Google translate, to tell us about the life of St Anthony and then give us a tour of the Monastery. Would've been nice to just sit around and relax for a while before dinner.
      Today was a bit cool and cloudy, nice weather for walking. We met an Australian couple from Melbourne and chatted to them on and off all day. Also chatted to Derya, the Turkish/American, a few times.
      Got to the albergue around 3 or 4. It's pretty good, with sheets and towels and a nice kitchen and common area. There's a cafe next door so we might just get a hamburger or something for dinner.
      Last night in bunk beds! and as pilgrims! so Santiago tomorrow morning and then we'll be tourists for a couple of days 😔       Czytaj więcej
