A Pilgrim's Life

Wake up around 6:30 or so - Albergues want you out of there by 7:30

Pack & find a place for continental breakfast.  Perhaps buy a snack for the road.

Start walking by 8:30.

Walk walk walk.

Stop for snack / lunch

Walk walk walk with stops for rest and refill water at public fountains.

If you're a fast pilgrim arrive at albergue early-to-mid afternoon.

If you are slow like me arrive late afternoon / early evening.

Check in / stamp pilgrim's credencial.

Take shower.

Wash the days' clothes by hand.

Fast pilgrim: hang to dry.
Slow pilgrim:  use machine dryer for 2-3 euros or wear dry (yuck)

Eat dinner - Pilgrim's menu ~ 10 €.

Journal / visit / read / text home / pray / attend mass

Lights out at 10:00
