Hi all, if the thought of dealing with Atlanta's notorious traffic had you holding off on registering for this year's Gathering fear not, there will be a shuttle service from the airport to the Calven Center.
Hope to see many of you there!
Hi all- I'm trying to find a thread from a while back. Someone had posted how they made a replica of a mile post/distance marker. I've search using several different key words with no luck. If anyone has it bookmarked would you please post a link. Thank you in advance!
Hi all, the Atlanta chapter of American Pilgrims on the Camino (our local representatives of the Confraternity of St. James) is hosting a hike at Sweetwater Creek State Park on Dec 5th. We will be meeting at the visitors center at 9:00 AM.
The event is open to all, but if you're coming and...
Having recently completed my first Camino I may be slightly obsessed, but I have already started planning a second. While my first Camino was on the Frances, my next will be along part of Via de la Plata.
Some of my favorite parts of the Camino were when I was able to reconnect with my Spanish...
I received my credential from the American Pilgrims on the Camino a few month back and now I can't find it. I thought it was in my backpack, but when I repacked today it was not in there. I leave tomorrow and have no idea what I did with it.
I have a day in Pamplona before I head to SJPdP. I...
I leave for Spain in six days and I'm ready to go already. I'd leave tomorrow if I could, but I have to work the next five days. I just want to start, I don't want to read about it anymore, or plan, or talk, or whatever. I just want to start. Sorry, just needed to vent. Now that I have that off...
Hope this is appropriate here- since Corazón Puro is not open for the season, anyone have recommendation for a peregrino friendly place to stay in Pamplona before I start my camino? Maybe something along the lines of a casa rural? Just looking for one night.
I thought I had a solid plan A, as well as a back up plan B. Once I decided to fly into MAD I planed to use Corazón Puro, unfortunately they emailed me saying they don't open until the 27. That's three days after I land, I was disappointed to say the least.
So after I got over that I moved to...
Technically not last minute because I don't leave for 3 weeks, but it is time to make some choices. My original plan was to go last fall (Sept-Oct), but due to a new job I am going this spring (Mar-Apr), so my pack is now a bit heavier. Since that's never a good thing, here are some choices I am...
Have any of you left the "official" route in Logroño and walked to Haro? If so, where did you rejoin, Santo Domingo de Calzada? I have walked along the Ebro River. It was a wonderful place to walk and I would not mind going that way during my camino. I just don't know if there is a walkable...
Hello all, I'm planing my first Camino next fall and thought I'd introduce myself. I regularly enjoy day hikes and have done some overnights and long weekends on the AT. On top of that I have a deep love of Spain & history. As such, it seems the Camino may be a perfect fit.
For the past 10...
