I returned to Spain in June 2024 with the intention of finally completing the Camino Frances route to Santiago de Compostella.
👣
This final trip would see me continue onwards from Ponferrada, where I ended my walk in August 2023.
👣
A disturbed night's sleep, thanks to a squeaky bed frame and mattress, led to a 7am start and the undulating climb towards O' Cebreiro.
👣
It was comforting to see the same familiar faces each day, and the swell of pilgrims passing in waves whenever stopped to rest or eat.
👣
The undulating climbs, the steep slopes, the horse poop... all part of the Camino experience.
