CAMINO DE SANTIAGO

This March I went to the Camino de Santiago with my class, my religion teacher Marisa and my history teacher Diego. We were walking five days (from 21st to 25th March) and we traveled  about 70 km.
Our route was as follows:
-The first day went from Palas de Rei to Melide.
-The second day we went from Melide to Arzúa.
-The third day we went to O Pedrouzo from Arzúa.
-The fourth day we went from O Pedrouzo to Monte do Gozo.
-The fifth day we arrived in Santiago, although the previous day we had already been there in the afternoon but we had not been walking but rather by bus.
In addition, we had a schedule, which is as follows:
-7:00: Wake up.
-7:00-7:45: Breakfast.
-8:00: Start to walk.
-11:00-11:45: Stop walking and eat a sandwich.
-12:00: Star to walk.
-14:00-14:45: Arrive to hostel and have a shower.
-15:00: Lunch.
-16:00-18:30: Free time.
-18:30-20:00: Walk around the village.
-20:00-21:00: Dinner.
-22.00: Go to sleep.
I decided to go to the Camino de Santiago because it was a unique opportunity to visit a little Galicia and to see the Santiago's Cathedral. Santiago de Compostela is a beautiful city that I recommend to visit:

 Also, there have been lots of laughs and fun along the way:

Also Sandra and I met two English gentlemen with whom we had a little conversation:

This is the conversation:
