i arrived in Santiago a little while ago.
Do I have to get my Compostela today or can I wait till tomorrow?
Thanks

Congratulations!! Treat yourself to a some nice food and a drink!
Sure you can wait till tomorrow. Arrive early in the morning , so no waiting line or go this evening half an hour before it closes.

Not this weekend. Maybe at the end of the month.
I want to get back to Madrid & my luggage lol
Tuesday I have a train to Valencia. Staying there for five days and then back up this way. La Coruña & Cangas for two weeks.

That's why I had my luggage sent to Santiago, instead of leaving it in Madrid, like I did last year. It was so nice to wear something different than what I'd been wearing the last five weeks.
I used the Express Bourricot service from St Jean. They sent it to Hotel Lasalle, where I received a very good rate because I had used the service.

Big question: Will you walk again?
Definitely but I doubt I would do from Sarria to Santiago again
The Norte way has caught my eye. I plan on being in Spain for 2 or 3 months next year up in A Coruña but with family coming and going. Thinking of possible doing a few stages of it and finishing up the following year.
Can anyone recommend some books on it?

I found I couldn't make any reservation in SJPP in the coming days. They are fully booked. I can't find even a single bed. What should I do? Is there anybody has a same situation?
Roncesvalles or push to Burguete? I prefer to avoid the recommended stages to avoid the race for albergues. Do you suggest Burguete? Is Roncesvalles too busy?
