Well, Robo, please be supportive. My wife is heading back to the US in a week. And I'm heading to Porto for the Portuguese Route. I really can't get enough.

Quick TR. Ferrol to Neda: We saw more rain that day than any day in Colorado for the last year. Mostly enjoyable but wet feet create problems. Great hotel. Pontedeume was nice. We watched the England World cup match and a guy was sympathetic to us when their opponents tied the game. I finally told him I'm not English and didn't really care. But it was a nice gesture. The walled city in Betanzos was really great. Plus our waiter gave excellent advice on a post Camino Beach day in Sanxenxo(great town). The finish was awesome We were walking in a really nice forest and just popped out in Santiago a couple of K from the Church. Buen Camino.

It is indeed! I think it was probably my favorite stop.

Congratulations! My wife and I intend to walk Camino Ingles in September. Would be interested to hear the stages you walked and accommodation used etc.

Six days. I'm now on the Portuguese Route. Very different. But nice.

I'll look at my notes when I get home and give you details of accommodations

I am curious also about your stages on the Ingles.
Thank you

If you are looking at a 6 day Ingles with non-albergue accommodation, consider the following:

day 1 - Ferrol to Xubia - Hotel Kensington
day 2 - Xubia to Pontedeume - Pension Casa Apilladeira
day 3 - Pontedeume to Betanzos - Hotel Garelos
day 4 - Betanzos to either Meson de Vento (Pension Meson de Vento) or to Buscas (Casa Rural Donnamaria)
day 5 - to Sigueiro - Albergue Camino Real (has a private room)
day 6 - Sigueiro to Santiago

Thank you peb- have appreciated your insight and advice. I’ll look more into this soon. The Camino is the beginning of an 5.5 week trip so trying to read and research while I’m able to with my work schedule
