Barbara, the priest at St Juan de Ortega died in 2008, but his tradition of serving bread and garlic soup continues. We went to mass, then shared the soup in the dining room, and while we were having dinner the hospitalleros moved the tables and chairs aside and put mattresses on the floor for us to sleep on. Love to you both – it’s thanks to you and Bryan that we’re having this wonderful experience, we hadn’t even heard of the Camino de Santiago before you told us about it. Judy

St Juan de Ortega – I think that is the one with the old priest who makes the garlic soup. He may have died , he was old back in 2004. Hope Greg’s feet get better soon. We spent two nights in Burgos in a hotel room with a bath. Blissful.

How are you going? Foot problems, bad luck, can you still make it?
