- Time of past OR future Camino
- First one in 1977 by train. Many since then by foot. Next one ASAP.
A first-time major bummer! Idly surfing the internet for the websites of places where I've stayed in the past, or might like to stay in the future, I finally encountered something I'd been expecting and dreading. Using big red letters I was informed that the b&b/restaurante Las Delicias del Camino in Mansilla de las Mulas was now "Permanently Closed."
Makes me wonder what other wonderful but unprofitable places of interest might finally be closed or closing, victims of the disappearance of pilgrims: the Peregrino Pasante's cabin near Logrono?; the food trucks?; the Casa de los Dioses near Astorga?; Tomas's Manjarin? I'd hate to see all the funky Camino novelty places I fell in love with disappear before I can return to them.... For many years my heart has lived on the memory of them....
