Transition day today to a new Camino. I walked to the Ourense bus station this morning for the two hour ride to Ponferrada. Tomorrow I will start walking the Camino Invierno. The ride today passed some of that walk which I mostly through the sometimes narrow canyon of the Rio Sil. There are hundreds of pilgrims here in Ponferrada as it is on the popular Camino Frances. Hopefully very few of them will divert to the Invierno. I took the luxury of a private room in a pending as I did not feel like staying in the 200 bed albergue that I was at in 2009.
Well done John, your decition to change Camino was good, all the people that you mention of course they are going to take the easy Camino like a flock of sheeps, because the Camino de Invierno is more difficult and it requires you to be in very good physical condition like you have it. Good luck and BUEN CAMINO.
