CAMINO DE SANTIAGO

I'm going to talk you about our experience last week doing 'El Camino de Santiago' in Galicia.  We're there five days, from Friday to Tuesday. 

We were 20 people: 18 students of 4th ESO and 2 teachers.

We ate very good and a lot of food, it was fantastic because we walked a lot and we were hungry.

Our rutine was: we woke up at 7:39/8:00 in the morning, we had breakfast and we started to walk, we stopped to have a snack (a big sandwich) and after finish the kilometres we have a shower and we have lunch, then, we just relaxed and we went around the village in the evening, after that we have dinner and we went to bed very early, at 10:00.

We started the first day walking from Palas de Rei in the evening to Melide, walking between 12 and 15 km. We were a little bit tired because of the 6 hours on the bus. 

The second day we went from Melide to Arzúa, 15km. I think it was the hardest day because of the slopes.

The third day we walked from Arzúa to Pedrouzo, where the youth hostel was very modern and it was very good, when we had dinner we watched a football match (R.Madrid-Barça) and we went to sleep at 12:00.

The fourth day it rained during almost all the morning! We were wet but nevertheless we had really fun. 

We arrived to Monte do Gozo, 4km far from Santiago de Compostela. That evening we went to Santiago by bus and we bought the "souvenirs" and we had dinner there. We returned to Monte do Gozo to sleep.

And sadly and finally, the fifth day we woke up at 7:00, we went to see two pilgrim's statues.

Then we walked 4km till arrive to Santiago, we had breakfast there and we went to see the Cathedral, we stayed at the cathedral's roof, it was awesome! We saw the "Botafumeiro", it flew above our heads!

After that we had lunch and...we came to Nava again, after an incredible experience that I would never change for anything!
