Camino Ingles & Camino Finisterre/Muxia

I originally wanted to get bus to Malpica and walk some of the relatively new Camino dos Faros (lighthouse way). After having trouble finding bus details and the fact I'm worried about finding accommodation, I decided that I'd just do the normal thing of walking onward to Finisterre.
The main big hotel where I've stayed twice before was closed. Managed to find a bunk in a private albergue 20 min walk away in a forest area. It was very nice surroundings, but it was incredibly cold! Because I was the only one there, I put my mattress right under the air-conditioning/heater unit to keep warm.
