Last night I learned I snore...

Also the German albergue in Pamplona

And also the albergue San Saturnino in Ventosa when I stayed there.

These work. I have used them. Ask your doctor though, if you have sleep apnea, probably not a good idea then.

So I just crossed the midway point on the CF, and last night I learned I snored. Well I knew I did sometimes, but had no idea how often or how loudly. Sleep apps have recorded some, but only in short bursts every few hours.

But last night I can only assume that I was snoring like a chainsaw, because I was woken up three times by my bed neighbor. And I'm still creeped out by it. Because the first time he did it by grabbing and fondling my outstretched hand. At the time I didn't know it was him, and I remember my sleepy brain thinking "Jesus, I need to leave a review about there being ghosts in this place." The next two times he shook me awake somehow before diving back into his bed, trying to be sneaky.

I haven't shared a bed with someone in over a decade, so being touched while sleeping was.... A shock to the system. I still vividly recall the hand fondling. It was borderline nightmare material.

Anyway, I know snoring has been discussed to death. And I'm also not going to apologize for it; I didn't know, and another pilgrim in the room (only 5 beds) says she didn't hear anything through her earplugs, so I'll assume I was not actually as loud as a chainsaw.

But people, touching sleeping pilgrims is not OK...

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwww yes it is too creepy to have that person touch you like that....
