Oh dear, oh dear!

The monastery was beautiful. We were taken around by a guide. A monastery is where monks live and work. They must have been busy because we didn't see any of them.

We were pleased when the hostel part of the monastery opened. We chose our bunks, unpacked our packs and settled in. Look at the beautiful paintings on the walls.

There was a very large step in the hostel and I slipped!  Oh dear, oh dear! I was raced off in an ambulance with flashing lights to Lugo. Thankfully I had no broken bones.

I was very pleased when I could sit in a wheelchair. Walking was very painful and very, very slow!

We did get to visit the famous cathedral at Santiago. It was huge and it was packed. Mr Wright thought that there were probably over three thousand people there.

We met so many people on the walk from all over the world - Chile, Brazil, France, Holland, Italy, Canada, Japan, Andorra, Belgium, Germany, USA, Austria, Australia, Sweden, England, Ireland, Switzerland, Finland, Mexico, Korea, Israel, Nicaragua, Majorca...... Now here is a challenge - how many of these countries can you find on the world map? See you soon!
