Stayed last night at the alberque in Melide. A bit of a shocker. Short walk today to Arzua, and have gone for a hostal. Lovely, leisurely and short walk. Few more blisters and shin was a shocker last night, but not long now. A depressing and lifting thought.
Will catch up with a friend from home Monday night. Also looking forward to seeing all the wandering tribe as they arrive.. Hope to do Compostela formalities Monday, and mid-day Mass Tuesday. Off to Madrid Wednesday. My mate Steve will push on to Finistere. Jo, from the early days had an accident, and hurt herself, and is now with her sister in Germany. The tales people have/will have.
Around 40kms to go.

is this working or not??
Way to Go Ash, on the last leg of your journey. What an experience and a mixture of emotions you must be going through? It must be such a feeling of accomplishment after that period where you almost took the " easier way out". It must have taken lot of courage and tenacity to push on and over that hurdle. And to think of all the new friends you have made along the way, some no doubt will become life long friends. You will have so many tales to tell that I suspect you will have to write a book to stop everybody pestering you for details. I know many have already done that before, but everybody has their own tales to tell and as friends I expect that we are interested in your tales. We all sit here and watched from a distance in admiration as your journey unfolded and of your guts and perservance to endure and see it through to the end. Well done. look forward to catching up with you when time permits as I expect you will be somewhat of a celebrity by now. CONGRATULATIONS
