    October 2014 Pilgrims

    Hi Amanda, I'm not sure where I am starting from yet. I will be taking the 1st week slowly. There is a September list & there are some people starting at or around the same as you. You might want to post there. I hope to meet you along the way. Buen Camino! Xoxo

    October 2014 Pilgrims

    Hi Adam, Saint Jean Pied Port is in France. I am considering starting in Pamplona or Roncevalles at this point. As I have a SI Joint issue & I am wanting to start slow. There are people that walk during winter. When are you thinking about going? From what I understand there a couple of...

    Grace, Thank you for all the info & tips. I will probably start getting gear & stuff in early September. Do you use walking poles? I decided to do the Camino Frances the 1st out as there are a lot of places to stop. I wanted to do del Norte or the way you are going. My husband feels more...

    October 2014 Pilgrims

    Grace, That's a great idea. I never thought about compression sleeves. Makes for less hassle removing clothing & reduces weight. How much does your pack weigh empty & loaded? Do you have a pack list? What do you use for rain gear & warmth? Are you going to Santiago this time? I will take...

    Hi Greg, I downloaded a bunch for free or a few dollars from the App Store. I am still studying them. This forum has an iPhone app which I love. I downloaded several travel apps like TripAdvisor & those type sites in case I need them for lodging. As far as backpacks go, I am looking at...

    October 2014 Pilgrims

    Greg, I have been studying the routes & info here, in the US pilgrims FB group & I have a lot of guidebooks & apps for my iPhone. I am more of a luxury traveler. I am sure you can do it. There are lots of posts of people your age up to much older doing it. I am 43. My husband is 67. I don't know...

    October 2014 Pilgrims

    Hi Greg, it's my 1st time walking. From what I have read, if you are considering the Napoleon Route then when you get to SJPP then you need to check to make sure that route is open because the weather can be bad sometimes around this time of year. There is a casa rural in Hunto & a albergue in...

    Why I'm doing the Camino

    Great story. I 1st heard about The Camino a long time ago when Shirley MacClaine was being interviewed on some show. She was talking about how she walked The Camino & she realized all she needed was what she had with her on The Camino. She started giving things away. That the walk had...

    Camino Frances October & November 2014

    Hi Joe, My anniversary is Sept. 27th so I doubt I'll start earlier unless my husband comes which looks unlikely now. I am planning on starting slow as I have never done anything like this before. I hope to see you & your wife there. You are lucky to be able to go together. I'd love to have...
