Death of American pilgrim in Castromaior today

[CWBuff]

Oh, there are just no words.
What a life, lived and lost, too soon. Much, much too soon.

Only the Good die Young

I now skip Castromaior. It is quicker and less hilly to stay on the road after Gonzar and stay Straight to the T in the road, cross over the highway, make a left and you rejoin other pilgrims as they make a right on there way to Ventas de Naron. When you get to T there are camino signs there.

But then you skip the Castro.
