We checked in at our albergue and at the pilgrim’s office and received the first stamps in our credentials. We attended the pilgrim Mass at the old church and received the pilgrim blessing. The albergue served a wonderful 3-course meal, and we socialized with the other 18 pilgrims from Germany, France, Ireland, England, Australia, Canada, etc. After our 36-hour day we called it a night and hoped for a good night’s rest.
