    The Pilgrim’s Guide to Etiquette

    Oh, now THAT’s funny. I used to call to rent cars (this is before online booking) and wanted to check prices in either Seattle or Portland…my brother lived in between so I just wanted the lowest price. 9 times out of 10 the response would be “Portland, Maine?” Sure, if there aren’t any cars...

    Are there Book swaps on the Camino. What book would you take.

    Well, if you do want to take a book (I prefer paper books, also, but have gotten used to the kindle app on my iPhone): I carried the Camino Frances village to village guide for a guidebook. “The Girl with a dragon tattoo” has an interesting story and a great protagonist. Likewise “Enders...

    Are there Book swaps on the Camino. What book would you take.

    I only ran across one or two book swaps. I think the other post about weight and language is probably correct. WiFi is almost universal, so easy to download more books from your library to your kindle. Buen Camino!

    Credencial Question

    Hi David. 32 days. Basically did the recommended stages, except at one spot I turned two stages into three days, so I could spend a night in a particular town (can’t get to the guidebook right now, so don’t recall the name). Maybe they’ve reduced the number of spaces in the credencial?

    Credencial Question

    The ones at the pilgrim office do have more space…I got two per day all the way from SJPdP, some sellos took more than two spaces, and I still had a few left over. Buen Camino!

    A busy April?

    I went all the way through and when I went to get my compostela, the lady acted surprised when I told her I started in SJPP.

    Rosa del camino

    Hello all. Anybody know a way to get some Rosa del Camino (plants, bulbs,…) in the US? I’ve found places that allow you to order for delivery in the EU, but nothing further afield. Really enjoyed the way they look and the aroma is heavenly. Thanks! Eric
