Starting July 14 from Puebla de Sanabria

[HuskyNerd]

Checking in to see if anyone here's planning to finish the Via de la Plata in late July. I'll start at Puebla de Sanabria on July 14 hoping for a July 25 arrival in SDC (yep, I already have a hotel reservation). Already heard from some doing the Camino Frances with a July 25 arrival there.

Some musings:

1) Anyone from this Forum who might be doing this route at this time?
2) I wonder what the schedule is for St. James festivities? Will there be any gusto left on the evening of July 25?
3) Any special conditions to plan for on the VDLP this year? Road construction, etc.?
4) Any "must see" sights along the way (heard some about hot springs near Ourense)

Buen camino, all.

Hi Arturo ~
My apologies, but my schedule has changed every so slightly. I'll be arriving in Puebla de Sanabria on July 13 at 04:00. Rather than spend the whole day there, I've decided to walk on ahead to Padornelo that day. Perhaps we can still meet?
Peace ~

Hi Sandy,

OK, I will try to be in Puebla de Sanabria earlier, to start from there on 13th. If not - hopefully we meet on the way. I had a leg injury and my pace is slowed down. However, I am still on the timeline.
Now my aim is to reach Zamora in two days.
¡Buen Camino!
Arturo
