Current location: Ribadiso de Baixo
Current company: morning pilgrims
Current # of kms left until Santiago: 42.1
Hace ya varios dias, llegamos a Sarria- el pueblo justo antes de empezar los ultimos 100 kms del Camino. Aquel dia fue durillo porque hacia mucho sol y calor y caminamos casi 30km. Ibamos a quedar en un albergue de las afueras del pueblo, pero no tenia buena pinta ni tuvo nada para comer. Seguimos adelante con Marta y Edi de Mallorca y pasamos del albergue suyo porque valia €10 en litera. No sabiamos que a partir de entonces este precio seria lo normal para un albergue que no sea de la xunta de Galicia. Habia una escalera super larga para entrar en la ciudad y fue otra cosa desagradable- luego seguido por algunos albergues completos, camareros ineptos, y todos clavandonos por ser peregrinos al final del Camino.
The night before that, though, we had enjoyed a kumbaya session with the Germans and danced salsa. Markus and Daniel both served as African children (a rodillas) while I danced as Shakira. Awesome.

Might be just as zippy if we were in Mississippi!
Current music: "Good Morning" from Singin' in the Rain.
Yesterday I got to sleep in a single room- score! #winning, but I woke up super early trying to catch up to a friend who'd gone ahead a few towns. The view was beautiful- I passed through vineyards with the sweetest grapes I've ever tasted and eventually arrived to Villafranca. It's a small town, but has no less than 3 Romanesque churches and a big castle. I didn't find my friend, so I just kept walking. I was told to smile by some old men. I think the heat and the large amount of beside-the-highway walking was getting to me. I braided my hair like Dorothy and was called Heidi. I passed the old men again and they invited me to lunch. Half were gay, it turned out, all were rich and one is even a food critic. Turned out to be a nice meal and I found the lost friend in the next town. We listened outside and sang along as Ufra played the guitar and a tiny kitten was the object of all the pilgrim affection. Later, German Markus (but not Montse's hobbitt) wanted to play English songs so we could sing, but mid-song forgot how to play More Than Words. @shanasolarte
This morning we were awoken by the sound of Ave Maria on loud speakers. Being a pilgrim means some pretty weird hazing rituals, but then he played a song from my absolute favorite movie and it was like my granny or mother was here. How nice.
So good morning, good morning. Sunbeams will soon smile through (I'd give it half an hour). Good morning, good morning to you!
