In the night there was a fiesta in Bandeiro. This is good… so I did not wake up many pilgrims as I carried my prepared backpack and my other bag outside at about 4 o’clock…. because it was loud anyway.
I wanted to go to Santiago today to meet Vince…. he starts his Camino to Finisterre tomorrow.
I walked about 34km to Santiago de Compostela…. first under the stars. The way was marked well…. about 10km in front of Santiago I lost it… I think someone painted an arrow into his village ( to his bar or something like that ) but not the way back to the main Camino. So I followed my open street map and my gpx data of the camino. In the forest my path got smaller and smaller… and then the way was not there any more. But the street was only 50m away… so going on. Now I stood about 5m above the street… almost vertical without bushes to hold.. even if it does not look like on this image….
So about 100m in the forest and then climbing down with the help of bushes…
Here I could see the cathedral very small for the first time….
The way in Santiago was not difficult with my smartphone….
The photos of the other pilgrims of me were not better…
In the afternoon I met Vince from Hungary in the albergue. We ate together and talked the whole evening.
Everything else like e. g. Compostela or pigrim’s mess should be tomorrow.
