[QUOTE="sillydoll, post: 7926, member: 8"] [b]Pre booked[/b] Hello Howie, There are as many different ways to walk el camino as there are pilgrims and there is nothing wrong with an organised camino. You could also do parts of it with an organised tour guide - someone like Nancy Frey who is an expert on the history of the camino and can tell you things that you might not even find in a guide book. Also, with a pre-booked camino there is the comfort in knowing that you have a clean bed and probably a private bathroom at the end of each day. However, the only part that you will miss out is the comaraderie around a table in the evenings with pilrims you have walked with all day. In 2002 my friend and I offered foot massages to footsore pilgrims in the albergues along the way. Although the sounds of ecstasy was sometimes almost erotic, I can assure you that there is nothing erotic about hot, sweaty, scaly, blistered feet! Half way into the walk we noticed familiar faces searching for us in the albergues. One guy from Brazil would scream with delight every time he arrived at an albergue where we were! You can still get your credential stamped along the way at hotels, inns, bars, libraries, police stations, churches etc and will still get your compostela at the end. Whichever way you do it, have a wonderful walk! [/QUOTE]
