"Camino de Santiage de Compostela" (France - Spain)

From the 16 to the 23 of March in 2007 I completed the "Camino de Santiago de Compostela". Because I aldready was accredited as a pilgrim I was allowed to spend the night at monasteries from the "Camino". In some monestries I got to know some groupes of people, in which they spoke up to six diffrent languages.
First stage:St Jean Pied de Port (Francia) - Pamplona (España) -80 km
Second stage: Pamplona - Logroño - 104 km
Third stage: Logroño - Burgos - 123 km
Fourth stage: Burgos - Carrión de los Condes - 92 km
Fifth stage: Carrión de los Condes - León - 120 km
Sixth stage: León - Ponferrada - 114 km
Seventh stage: Ponferrada - Samos - 109 km
Eighth stage: Samos - Santiago de Compostela - 110 km
