Luka replied to the thread LIVE from the Camino Counting pilgrims on the Norte AGAIN.Wow, 59 pilgrims between Gijón and Villaviciosa is quite a lot, I would say. Considering that the vast majority you met had already walked past the Camino Primitivo junction. I don't know when on the next stage you plan to head for the coast... -

First day: Now in Aviles I had imagined it would be so nice, fresh off the plane and straight onto the camino in glorious weather. But when I left Asturias airport at 1pm today, I was greeted by pouring rain. So I had to put on my rain poncho... -

Luka reacted to Bradypus's post in the thread LIVE from the Camino Current big wave at beginning of Francés with Like.
From a purely practical standpoint another factor is that walking a Camino now is physically far easier than it used to be. Vastly improved infrastructure of albergues, hostals, bars and so on. So stages now can be shorter and there is less to...

Thank you.
Odd. When I do the same the result is an increase of 15% for that 4 month period. Which is roughly in line with the specific figures for those recorded as starting from SJPDP and Roncesvalles. Last year the arrivals statistics for January...
