Knights of Malta to provide first aid at Pilgrim office...

I received this in a regular newsletter from ACC (Acogida Cristiana del Camino). It is in Spanish, but I use Chrome, so I right-click and translate to English...

Bottom line, the Knights of Malta will have a care station somewhere on the Pilgrim Office campus. They will provide basic first aid and care to arriving pilgrims.

That's all I know just now... if they are using their marquee tents (see inset photo in newsletter article), I suggest the care center will be in the rear garden of the P/O campus. But, that is just informed speculation.

IMHO, this is a very good development, especially during the hot summer months....

Care for the body but what about care for the mind? Do buskers ever show up at the Pilgrim Office queue? I didn't see any when I was in line but then it wasn't a very long one.

Buskers go where the passing traffic is highest. This is not Rua Carretas, where the Pilgrim Office is. The generally remain around the Cathedral.
