Anhalter replied to the thread Join for a Coffee or Wine in Leon - March 3rd.Another place i can highly recommend is the bar "Jamon Jamon". Not sure if they still exist, but they used to hand out rather generous free tapas with every drink. (And the drinks were on the cheap side of things to start with). -
Anhalter replied to the thread Advice on specific Decathlon rain jackets?.I used the FH900 on a May/June CF and i especially liked the light weight and breathability.

Not that i...

Anhalter replied to the thread Decathlon backpack.With a pack of 17 or 25 liters thats most likely not an issue... (and bot packs do have a belt and neither has a frame, but i get your point)

Anhalter replied to the thread OK guys, what underwear?.I had some expensive merino boxers. On hot days it resulted in them itching in wrong places. I switched them out after a week on camino for the cheapest synthetic running boxer Decathlon is selling (iirc 3-4€) and they have been working fine to...

Anhalter replied to the thread Silly Stuff that you have Worn on Camino - Pics.It certainly looked silly, but it was 100% intentional and worked perfectly. The theory: Stuff on the drying racks gets mixed up all the time and you might end up losing your socks because all those dark grey things pretty much look the same...

Anhalter replied to the thread What is your favorite (affordable) restaurant on the Camino Frances?.Depends on your definition of "affordable". Bar O Pedrouzo made a killer steak for around 40€ (for 2, so 20 each, drinks and sides included). Bar Soriano in Logrono makes great champinion pinchos for like 2€ each, pair with a glass of rioja for...
