October 5 Ponferrada – Villager Angel

Approaching Ponferrada.  Citizen angel: A French couple and I were about to cross the street to follow Camino signs.

A lady out for her morning walk started shouting to us, No! No! Then she, who spoke only Spanish, communicated to me (only English), and the couple (only French) that we were about to take the route that was 4 km longer than the walk in front of us. Then she proceeded to walk in front of us until we came to the intersection where the longer route met our route.

Here she is leading the way.
