Challenges: the normal stress of hoping to find a bed at the end of the day. Not getting any sleep due to snoring! It is what it is! Arriving at the albergue at 11.45am and it starting to rain for the next hour. So we just sat in the rain getting soaked. They opened the doors at 12.40pm ish - check in was quick ✅
