    Mid March 2012 for a newbie

    Really cool. I checked it out and it is quite inspirational. Thanks for sharing! However I do think my mum is feeling a little better about it now.

    Falcon funny thing you mentioned the Lafuma cause I just literally purchased the Lafuma Extreme 800Ld Sleeping Bag 1lbs 13oz and compressible to 6x12 inches Rated for 40F but i will be sleeping in layers. Close to spec of the Alps Fleece liner but more protection. Hard to beat at $60.15...

    underwear

    Ordered these and pretty satisfied so far!! And they cost alot less than all the synthetics I've seen so far. Very smooth and light fabric and seems to offer good support. Seems pretty easy to clean and dry. Ordered 3 for my 2 months in Europe. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003AP ...

    Soap

    I just received the soaps and tried the unscented bar. Works really well for shampoo and shaving utilizing the lather sack :) I don't see no problem using them for washing clothes. Oh they smell really nice too :)

    wow less then 2 wks from now..

    I originally planned to simply tour Europe (Spain, Portugal, France, Benelux, and Italy) for 5 weeks but now things have changed so rapidly. I must admit I have not heard of the Camino before seeing the movie "The Way" 3-4wks ago. After watching the movie with my dad I said to myself there is no...

    looking for "A Pilgrim's Guide to the Camino de Santiago"

    I thought I'd try to see if anyone have a copy of "A Pilgrim's Guide to the Camino de Santiago" (the St. Jean to Santiago) to share?? It would be fairly neat to use a book that someone has taken to the Camino before :D Please let me know. BTW i live in Rockville, Maryland USA :)

    Mid March 2012 for a newbie
