      John Cook reacted to Sandra Wolf's post in the thread Overcrowded Camino Frances with Like Like.
      We were told the other day that there are 1000 pilgrims in total among the various Caminos starting out each day. How disappointing to see the Frances loved to death. I highly recommend the Norte. The length is about the same as the Frances, and...

      John Cook reacted to jsalt's post in the thread Vertigo with Like Like.
      My only problem on the Norte was the road bridge across to Ribadeo. It is very long, much much longer than the bridge across to Portomarin. And it was very windy. I took a deep breath, shut my eyes (figuratively!), put my head down, and didn't...

      John Cook reacted to jefferyonthecamino's post in the thread Bar Etiquette with Like Like.
      Drinks inside, 99% of the time it's self-service. If the seating is outside, then there could be a server, best option is ask inside: 'Sirven mesas?'. Don't worry about offending, bars will not take offence about getting this wrong; and a smile...
