Been on the camino about 2 weeks now. All going well. I crossed the Pyrenees, it was wonderful weather, so the views were incredible. It was long but not as difficult as I thought it might be, so I would encourage anyone hesitating to go for it. The refugios have been fine on the whole. Some better than others, but we have stayed in hostals some of hte time, just for sanity´s sake, as the snoring and mixed facilities can get a bit too much sometimes. All in all a great experience so far. Resting in Burgos, for a couple of days then onwards. The Cathedral here is spectacular!
Not too many english pilgrims on the route. Many germans, dutch, danish, italians. All very nice though.

New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
Thanks for the update Gordana. From the weather report, it seems like you have had some rain these last days. Hope things are all well.

Buen camino and welcome to Santiago,
Ivar
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
