O'Cebreiro

Today we climbed the mountain to O'Cebreiro. Pilgrims talk about this past of the walk with some fear---some plan to avoid this part of the walk altogether and others plan to get a bus. However by the time you get this far you are generally much fitter and the walk up the mountain is quite beautiful. To help us get through the day we did a bar crawl up the mountain ---5 in all and it did help but extended our day to 8 hours---till 3.30. Met up with Robert from Byron Bay last night and ran into him again today.An interesting guy, he runs courses on the enneagram. Today's new person was Lauren, a nurse from Germany. The health of both of us still improving,which is a bit of a miracle.

It's exciting hearing about your travels, both of you. I've managed to read a bit of Anne's travels but can't seem to get back to it. Till next time, love to you both, Canxx

Hi there,
great that you are getting different experiences of the Camino by walking by yourself at times. it's funny cause when I was reading about Hospital - I was going back over your and Anne's blogs to find out who was in hospital and what had happened to whom and couldn't find any blood and gore anywhere - a bit of tiredness and flu and aching legs but not enough to land you in hospital!! Some of the names are very confusing!! Love Maz

You are right---and there a few different Hospitals and Villafrankas just to be confusing!!!
