    Preparation and nail care on the Camino

    Panic stations! We leave Australia in just four days for SJPDP and I thought I had everything covered; did not even consider my nails, nor make-up. Looks like I will just have to go unprepared. Really hoping we meet some of you on the way. We plan to walk to Leon at least, where we started last...

    How to deal with dogs?

    Hoping to meet these two again later this month. My wife finds it almost possible not to stop and, if appropriate, play with every dog we meet!

    León to Astorga: via Villar de Mazarife or San Martín del Camino?

    Last March we walked via Mazarife, stayed at San Antonio de Padua, loved the walk and the accommodation. Hope to to the same later this month. Buen Camino Arthur

    Confiscated by security

    The airport officials told me I should have put it with my checked luggage. They even suggested I go back and check it in separately but we were running late

    Confiscated by security

    I bought a bottle of wine in Santiago for our priest who had given us advice on the Camino. Confiscated at Madrid airport. I thought being sealed it would be okay. Will put in checked luggage this year

    March Camino

    My wife and I walked Leon to Santiago in March/April this year. Weather was perfect and accommodation easy to find. Can't wait to return in March 2017. Coming from Central Queensland we really appreciated the cooler days

    Missing the Camino like crazy

    We know the feeling. Walked Leon to Santiago in March this year and loved it so much we are planning to go back in March next year to start from SJPDP hopefully to Leon. My wife and I are teachers and have taken long service leave to do this and other bucket list items. Can't wait to get back

    From Brisbane to St Jean

    I know this question has been asked previously, that is, the best way to travel from Brisbane to St Jean, and the answers I have found all state fly to Paris and then train to St Jean. Just wondering if flying to Barcelona is a better option as the train journey to St Jean from Barcelona appears...
