Hello all,
After much needed research on this website, I have been preparing to start my first Camino from SJPdP on June 15th.
I will be walking to SdC alone, not planning to pre-booking albergues, just walk, eat, rest, repeat.
I have been stressing over bringing a jacket as it seems that the summer heat hasn't started.
Looks like I may get rain on my first few days as well.
1) I have a long sleeve tech shirt and light windbreaker, should I bring a warmer jacket for the evenings/mornings?
2) I haven't packed any long pants as I am accustomed to wearing shorts all day in hot weather. I am not worried about the sunburn, I am just worried if it would be cold in the mornings. From your experience is long pants a must around this time of year?
3) I go trekking and for long walks in my Keen hiking sandals with injinji toe socks or darn toughs. I am planning to do the full camino in these, if they get wet from the rain I have 3 extra pairs of socks and a poncho to keep me dry. Anyone want to advise against this?
Thank you all!!! Buen Camino!!
