October 04: 74th Birthday Review

Today’s walk brought me up the mountain to the Cruz de Ferro, one of the most significant milestones on the Camino Frances. It was a cold, rainy walk, but we were protected from the wind most of the way.

An impromptu birthday party in El Acebo
Pilgrims from London, Sweden, and South America? Maybe Cuba?
More of the party group. Marco in the middle from Mexico City. They were exhausted after a 32 km walk in the cold and rain (and up/down a mountain)
Walked with Ken from Southern California out of Hospital del Orbigo
Met a new friend, Lena from Norway
