    San Zoilo Closure?!

    That’s so sad. It was a wonderful treat to stay in such a beautiful place!

    LIVE from the Camino Busy May on the Meseta

    I disagree totally! I had some great homemade soups and pizzas along the meseta, plus I thought the hospitaleros were extra warm and friendly—maybe because so many pilgrims just rush by without checking out some of the charming garden cafes not visible from the path.

    ticks and mosquitoes

    I haven't seen ticks at all and just a few mosquitoes along the way; however, I have gotten spider bites on two separate occasions while sleeping. I'm thankful these were non-poisonous but I did break out in hives both times. I had great experiences at hospital in Burgos first time and now...
