19th stage part 1 to Arzúa

ޝާއިޢުކޮށްފައިވެއެވެ: 19.11.2023

I woke up early again and chilled in the kitchen for over an hour before heading out. Of course I packed and had a small breakfast. There were a total of 6 people in the accommodation yesterday, but everyone kept to themselves, which I don't think is a bad thing. All in all, this is great accommodation for just under €12 and although it was a large room, it was divided up so that there were a maximum of 4 beds in each area. And then I leave around 6 a.m. There were still young people in the city from the Saturday partying, but I found my way out of the city easily. It combines with the Camino primitivo route, which is why there are generally more pilgrims on the way, but of course not at 6 a.m. Then we went out into the forest and back into the wet and muddy area. At the beginning I always thought to myself whether it would go well and I would fly there, but now I'm looking forward to it and know that I'll find a way. Overall, I have to say that I was really lucky with the weather in November. So there were 2 or 3 full days of rain and then occasional shorter showers and extreme wind at the beginning, but as I said, that's a very good rate for November. The weather was my biggest concern. So I went through the woods with my headlamp at full speed and worked up a sweat because it was uphill. I passed many small places where there were also smaller bars for the masses of pilgrims, but almost all of them were closed because of the early time, Sunday and because many are generally closed in winter. But I had breakfast and the last time I had breakfast in Arzúa was in a churrería, but more on that later. I said that the path is now the same as the Camino primitivo. I did this Way of St. James in July, but back then I took a different variant and only returned to the regular route from Arzúa. Shortly before Arzúa I saw a few pilgrims here and there and the path to Arzúa continued again. Towards the end I went along the road again and then in Arzúa I passed my accommodation, Los Tres Abetos, where I stayed in July and which is run by a German-Swiss couple. I liked it there and wanted to go there again this time, but the stage planning didn't work out. So I went ahead and went to the churrería. I didn't know if it was open, but I was lucky. I ordered liquid chocolate with churros with a coffee. What a treat. I was looking forward to that and it was really good. I took a half hour break there and then continued on.
