    Lost & Found Take care of your gear!

    And those items should be in a money belt of some sort attached to your body at all times except for showering, at which time the belt should go into the shower with you in a waterproof bag.

    Hospital de Orbigo

    I have always stayed in albergues right in the center of Hospital de Orbigo but this year we stayed on the outskirts in a hotel called El Paso Honroso. For €50 I have a nice clean room with three beds and a BATHTUB!!! Also, even if you do not stay here, if you’re looking for a great Menu del...

    Who owned this Albergue?

    It was full last night and we sure did enjoy it! The food was great and the host was wonderful.

    Who owned this Albergue?

    It seems I remember there was someone on this forum who owned the Albergue on the right hand side of the road just before you turn left to go to Albergue Jesus in Villar de Mazariffe. That place is now called Albergue San Antonio de Padua. Am I dreaming?

    Lost & Found LOST (Now found!) PACER POLES BEFORE CEA

    Oh Jill! I’m so happy for you! That would’ve been quite a loss. After hearing about thefts and Roncesvalles, and feeling a little downhearted about that, this has made me feel happy again.

    Where was your starting point? Maybe some of the local Albergues will have items in the free boxes

    Bus to La Virgen Del Camino

    Yesterday we pulled into Leon and I was surprised to see us at a brand new bus station I’ve never seen before because I usually walk into Leon. In the past, we’ve caught a city bus across the street from the bus station to take us to Virgin Del Camino, but I’m wondering if this is still the...

    Advice on starting in Roncesvalles

    Thanks for that train info. I had no idea. Good to know in case of bad weather

    Reverse daily luggage transfer

    I use Jacotrans a couple of reverse days this month. I had to have my bag ready by seven instead of eight.

    Pilgrimage or vacation?

    Frankly, Scarlet… they can call it whatever they want!

    Temperature in albergues

    It was probably me. The smell and the heat from all those pilgrims are overwhelming in some places. I’m the somebody who tries to get the bed by the window so I can sleep with it open for fresh air, even if it’s just a crack.
