Camino: Day 16 Revisited

Here's what I wrote a year ago after completing the 16th day of walking on the Camino de Santiago:

* woke up at 7:20am; left albergue at 8; breakfast at 8:30; began walking at 9
* cafeteria was packed with peregrinos!
* 9kms completed by 11:20
* bocadillo de ternera upon arrival in Salceda
* Camino Francés is like Grouse Grind: packed full of people!
* albergue in Pedrouzo
* beautiful church (even though very small), and it was open!  it had a shell-shaped back wall; beautifully lit!
* dinner at Che Cafe; spaghetti bolognese, albondigas con arroz, and caldo gallego; of course, café con leche afterwards - damn, coffee is good in Spain!
* somewht sad that it all ends tomorrow
