walked next to cycling track all the way to La Arena.
10:40 arrived at La Arena had snacks. we decided to have a relaxing day at the beach today.
after a few drinks, lay down on the beach. I was the only one in shade..:)
took a nap a bit on the beach and head to albergue.
14:15 there were a lot of pilgrims waiting for the door to be opened.
15:00 the door opened and people rushed in. the French father and daughter and I were already decided to sleep outside so gave up the bed for the other people.
I will try the mattress for the first time:)
after daily routine, went out for a drink and snack. nice marinated fish tapas and thacoli. super nice tapas!
relaxing & hanging around the albergue. getting cloudy... maybe rain tonight... there are more than 20 pilgrims out of bed tonight. Julia, Bill and Shawn decided to stay in the hotel, but I decided to stay with rest of the pilgrims. move to church.
they put mattresses outside of the church. one guy with guitar and the other with ukuleke start playing. it was pretty nice evening watching sunset and listen to their music. felt like being in hippie gathering:)
