    Mozárabe from Málaga

    I walked from Malaga and I loved it. I thought it was a beautiful route. I used the notes from Magwood, which were very helpful. In fact she met me at the church in Malaga.

    Accommodation worries

    I’m in SJPP right now. IT WAS COMPLETELY BOOKED YESTERDAY BY 2 PM AND today Roncesvalles is completely booked. If I were you, I would get online right now and book Roncesvalles and Zubiri. Even Pamplona was pretty full day before yesterday.

    This was our experience on the Meseta. Luckily we had booked ahead.

    Packing List Final Review. Starting in a week! :)

    Have you made reservations in the bottleneck? All beds were full last night in SJPP and today in Roncesvalles

    LIVE from the Camino SJPP TODAY May 2, 2024

    And when they arrive in Roncesvalles with no bed? People might want to stop telling people to ‘Just go! Don’t book ahead!’ It’s no longer good advice imo, at least on this bottleneck. Also, they don’t make that info about the municipal building clear to all. We had several pilgrims stop by...

    LIVE from the Camino SJPP TODAY May 2, 2024

    Yes. Some found a mat on the floor there (which can be more comfie than some of those old beds!). People here at Gite Compostella tried to book Roncesvalles for tomorrow (today now) and it was full.

    LIVE from the Camino SJPP TODAY May 2, 2024

    We are in SJPP today While we were standing in line today, one of my pilgrims met 3 people from Taiwan, who could not find a bed. He said he also saw several people on their phones, frantically searching for beds. We saw many signs that said complete and the Albergue was complete. This is...

    LIVE from the Camino They are recommending the Valcarlos route tomorrow, how foolish would it be to go Napoleon?

    We spoke with Gite Compostelle. It is raining in SJPP, AND it is currently snowing in Roncesvalles. Our group will be taking the bus if this is the same tomorrow.

    LIVE from the Camino They are recommending the Valcarlos route tomorrow, how foolish would it be to go Napoleon?

    Thank you. I did not know about the bus. If we decided to take this bus, do we need to buy tickets ahead of time or just get them from the bus driver?

    LIVE from the Camino They are recommending the Valcarlos route tomorrow, how foolish would it be to go Napoleon?

    Can someone give me a link to the best local weather page to check for SJPP? Because the one I’m looking at said it was sunny all day today and it obviously was not.

    LIVE from the Camino Current big wave at beginning of Francés

    As a person who books those nefarious ‘tour groups’ each year, let me assure you that we are NOT the ones taking up albergue beds! The people booking in groups are often older or retired and do not WANT to sleep in a room with others. They want their own room and bathroom when possible. And so...

    Alert Theft at Roncesvalles

    That’s what the three young people believed about the “nice older lady pilgrim” who they walked from Zubiri with, and who told them she would watch their stuff while they showered - only to return to find their cash and cards stolen and their Camino over in Pamplona. Nobody has had a bad...

    Guardia Civil returning lost passports to owners

    We got the “bird poop” scam in Barcelona. I had just read about it on the Rick Steves website or it would have worked. I was SHOCKED that the culprit was a well groomed gentleman in a business suit! I read that site before each trip to hear the latest, now.

    Lost and found

    I lost my temper on my first Camino years ago. It was on the Meseta and I took my wooden walking stick - like those they sell all along The Way - and beat it on a boulder, as hard as I could! The danger thing REFUSED to break! I felt better except for a sore hand and was happy there were no...
