Camino map and Pilgrim Credencial

 

It is a tradition on the Camino to get your Credencial (pilgrim passport)  stamped wherever you stay each night, as well as at churches, bars and cafes along the way.  If you want to receive your Compostela, which is a document of completion awarded to those who complete at least the last 100 km walking the Camino, you must present your completed Credencial at the pilgrim office in Santiago.  You are asked the reason for your pilgrimage and if you answer does not include a spiritual motivation, you receive an alternate certificate.  

My credencial and stamps so far

 This map is from my credencial.  So far we have walked from St Jean (not shown) to Roncevalles, 

(upper right) to Zubiri, to Pamplona, to Ponte de Reina, to Estrella, where we are tonight.  

So far I have walked 204,100 steps!  (At least according to my Apple watch.)
