Eating along the way
Calamari -- not that I know of, but that sounds like it would be amazing! Also, I have not been to Madrid, but I have heard good things about the food scene there.- Jarrad

Eating along the way
That's a pretty quick walk (5 days I think?) through some lovely country. You can get by on under 30 Euros a day. The food tradition in Galicia is simple food, so you will be right at home. Tasty and simple doesn't mean that you can't get a hearty meal if you change your mind and decide you...- Jarrad

Having a Camino Birthday
Happy Birthday! I'm partial to the Basque garlic soup (sopa de ajo) and it goes well with the current Boise weather. It's really easy to make and a great course to have with pinxtos. I like this recipe.- Jarrad

Travel from Paris to St Jean Pied de Port
Taking the train is a great way to go. You might also look at the cost in time and money to take a flight into Biarritz. From there you can either catch the train or use the transport service Express Bourricot to get to St.-Jean-Pied-de-Port.- Jarrad

How much cash should i bring on my Camino?
Agree with all of the above. I don't use a prepaid card, but my debit card. If you go that route, then let your bank know in advance that you will be using out of the country. I give them the dates I expect to travel and that (so far) has prevented them from locking my account due to...- Jarrad

Washroom Breaks on the Camino
I walked the CdF while on medications for kidney stones that made me pee frequently. And I tend to drink a lot of water anyway. I didn't have any problems finding a place to go, but I'm a dude and that makes things a bit easier. One exception: I passed through Pamplona and used a restroom at...- Jarrad

Any upstate NY'ers here? Saugerties, Kingston, Woodstock, Albany area?
Danbury!? Ha! Great place to be from. I grew up in Shelton, remember when the Danbury Fair was a fair and not a mall, and spent some time working on the fisheries at Candlewood Lake and Squantz Pond (amazing brown trout and smallmouth bass, some OK walleye). Oh, and the hiking nearby was...- Jarrad

Fly fishing
I did take the time to sit and watch people fish for trout in several locations. Never saw anyone fly-fishing. I saw a few pools with trout (including below the bridge in SJPdP) and a few areas where some habitat restoration work was done (not too far past Roncevalles, if I remember correctly...- Jarrad

Acclimate First?
Just my 2 cents: I've only arrived on redeye flights and could not imagine starting out without at least one night and, preferably, another whole day to acclimate. Coming from the US, for me the expense of the flight, especially for a shorter camino, makes a few days on the front and back end...- Jarrad
