[QUOTE="Drew1578, post: 720834, member: 82954"] So when I got home from work yesterday, I dug through my pile of Camino stuff and found my John Brierly book and the Camino Ingles book I just received from the Confraternity of St. James and compared the two in regards to the route between Betanzos to Hospital de Bruma. The new Brierly book does show the old and new routes as Dave mentions, but the Confraternity book makes no mention of it - I’ve attached screenshots of both. That said, the Confraternity book does a great job of describing the route - literally turn by turn. If I was walking the Frances this might not be that big of a deal but since I’ll be walking at the beginning of May and I have read that it could be possible that I might not see another Pilgrim on the Camino (which is a plus for me since it’s such a short walk), I’m glad I ordered the Confraternity book. It describers the landmarks, houses, etc., that one passes along the Camino and also includes where to get a sello - worth the shipping price from the UK. Regarding the old route, in Brierly’s book at the Leiro option he writes that the original route (in grey) avoids the “busy AC-542 into Bruma but in time the waymarks will fade and so it is not recommended.” I’m guessing then that they are still visible and since I doubt I’ll walk the Ingles again I might walk the old route so I can at least past by Bar Julia. I don’t know exactly how busy the AC-542 will be, but the idea of walking along a highway here in SoCal isn’t high on my list of things to do. And if the weather is bad making visibility poor for drivers, well..... no thanks. [ATTACH type="full"]53561[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]53562[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
