    Backpack & Poles - Carry on?

    SFO to CDG: Poles in the pack, carry it on. The one time I checked my poles they arrived three days later.

    LIVE from the Camino 25 Apr 2015 -- "Houston -- The Eagle Has Landed"

    Congrats. I loved following your posts and thoroughly enjoyed your wry sense of humor.

    Reminder to the class of 2015.

    My feet reminded me of something on a hike this afternoon that I thought I would pass on: Give your toenails a darn good trim before you get on that airplane––you're feet will thank you for it. I've had good camino karma and come home sporting all my toenails each time, but not everyone has...

    It's Different This Year

    I leave Toulouse tomorrow on the early train to begin my Camino. I promise to be nice, not steal other people's stuff or throw it on the floor and not book more than one albergue. Most importantly, I'll do my best to be a good pilgrim, be of good humor and not sow discord.

    A light sleeper's nightmare

    Tom, you can tell your "brother-in-law" not to worry, the Silent Nite won't shock him. ; )

    A light sleeper's nightmare

    I've had my Silent Night for about six weeks and my husband says he hasn't slept better in years. I don't have any more worries about keeping others awake at night. Yeah!

    Now I lay me down to sleep...

    Thanks for the suggestion to reserve ahead, Zammy. I think that's what I'll do.

    Now I lay me down to sleep...

    With just a month to go before my camino I'm wondering about alternatives to the albergues that are "complet". Do the private accommodations fill up as quickly? Other options? I'd appreciate it if the veterans would weigh in. My pack is whittled down to less than 13 pounds so I could add a...

    A light sleeper's nightmare

    Thanks for your responses. There have been so many comments about snoring on the forum that I was getting concerned. I will just start walking and see what happens. If it becomes a issue I'm sure I'll figure it out. Hair shirts have never been my style, but fuzzy legs may be on the horizon...

    A light sleeper's nightmare

    Quiet time? You are really having fun with me, aren't you Tyrrek! The big day for these restless legs is June 19...high season, and "yikes" day for my future roomies. With that in mind, I'll pin my hopes on their compassion and this new "Silent Night" device. I'd also appreciate getting the...

    A light sleeper's nightmare

    I am a light sleeper's nightmare. I have sleep apnea, I snore and I have restless legs. I don't want to keep others from a good night's sleep, but also don't want to miss out on the camaraderie of the camino by taking private rooms each night. I have had dental impressions made for a Silent...

    Beginning to lose heart.

    Fingers crossed that I don't go down any of those camino paths this summer. Fortunately, worries and fears don't weigh anything; if they did, i'd have to trade my backpack for a wheel barrow! : )
