    Albergue recommendations

    In June my son and I will be walking the Primitivo. This is my eighth Camino and his first. I have not walked the Primitivo before and would like your recommendations for some of your favorite albergues.

    Vaseline on feet?

    I used Vaseline on my whole foot my last Camino, changed my liners regularly throughout the day when they got sweaty and had no blisters. I also would tape hot spots. I think it works great.
