Out of Gijón to A Coruña

We caught our bus early and had a long ride. Once in A Coruña, which is a bustling port town we made it to the beginning of the English Way.

We found the beginning of the Way in a square behind the Church. We followed a tour group inside the church. They were snapping pictures all over the place, we were trying to make sure we were in the right place. A kind priest came out and directed us to his office. He asked us where we where from stamped our credentials.

Below I show a picture of our current credentials, as we go we get more stamps. The last 100 km require 2 stamps per day to get a Compostela.

By saying our credentials I mean, our proof that we have passed through or stayed the night in a certain place. When we check into our Albergue they put their unique stamp on our Pilgrim passport ie, our credential.

Plaza de Maria Pita in A Coruña.

We walked several more kilometers through the City before getting to our hotel.

Dorean got schooled on what a red light means at a street crossing , “No you can’t go, you go when it’s green” She just likes to just look, if it’s clear, Go!

Below is Al’s Relive video of our days walk. More tomorrow, until then .. be well.
