Camino Frances - April-June, 2016
Portuguese Lisbon-Santiago - October, 2017
We are heading to the Portuguese Camino Coastal from Lisbon route staring October 19th, spending about a month walking plus rest days. Any special challenges about walking that time of year? I've checked temperatures and they seen good (at least to this Texan - 100F right now). I'm hoping we don't need a sleeping bag - we survived fine last year on the Frances late April in really cold albergues with a liner, light jacket and sometimes a fleece. I'm guessing that by the time we get to Porto it will be November. Will we find enough places open? We don't mind hotels or pensiones.
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
Porto is a very popular tourist destination. there are hundreds of cheap hotels. Weather on the coast is very unpredicatable. prepare for all types.
