Although I appreciate your very kind words, there really is no need to thank me for anything since it is I who derives pleasure and gratification talking about Camino-related things with those who also care about it. I only know four or five people in the flesh in New York who have made the pilgrimage, and I don't see them very often..... so thank Linda and you all for this list!. <BR>
Now,... there is a Benedictine monastery, close to the Cathedral, where interested pilgrims may stay. You may write to:<BR>
Madre Hospedera<BR>
Monasterio San Pelayo<BR>
San Pelayo ante Altares 23<BR>
15704 Santiago de Compostela<BR>
La Corunha, Spain<BR>
tel: 981 583 127<BR>
Fx 981 560 623<BR>
Persons may stay there for 35 Euros per day, which includes all meals. But there is a 10:00 p.m. curfew and the monastery requires a minimum stay of 3 days and a maximum of eight days. The monastery has, for this purpose, a dormitory with five single beds and 2 double rooms with private beds, all supplied with towels and linen. Different arrangements may be made with the Madre Hospedera upon arrival; the curfew, however, is not negotiable.<BR>
The Seville pilgrim who sent this information does not know whether there have been any changes since she stayed there in 1992. <BR>
