Awoken by a rude rooster. The walk: rainy, lite then heavy, turning to snow in the mountains. Few bits of sun. Holy hills! The walk was like a Sunday unto itself, even the dodgy bits.
I slowly walked the Way up but learned others after were stopped by the police and forced to take a cab to R due to conditions—lucky me! R is beautiful covered in snow. Met a few more pilgrims. Interesting ppl from all over. Tonight, Mass with the priests at the Royal Collegiate Church. Tomorrow, set out early, weather permitting.
