I returned to the albergue where I stayed last as a last resort as it was a bit grim. You are allowed to stay more than one night if you are waiting for the ferry but the dragon of a hospitalero wanted to disagree. She just kept saying no, even though there were only half the beds taken. Luckily a couple of German girls with good Spanish interpreted for me and help plead my case. Reluctantly the dragon said "Si".
An Italian girl was thrown out of the albergue at about 10:00pm because something was wrong with her hair? I don't know where she slept and it rained in the night!
On a happier note I met two lovely people who came together on the camino. He is Austrian and cycling and she is Norwegian and walking. Somehow they have been travelling together for the past week, I think they make a lovely couple and hope everything works out for them. We went for breakfast together this morning to chill after the dragon at the albergue wound us all up again this morning. I am sorry I did not get their names but "thank you for the breakfast, buen camino and good luck to you both."
Fingers crossed that the weather is not too bad on the ferry, I hope to get on board in a couple of hours. I will be able to have a shave and a decent shower and put clean clothes on for the return journey to normality.
