    Just back from the Camino Ingles

    One of the things Wendy loved so much about the Camino was the flowers. I must take more pictures of those next week when we are there.

    Significant change to the Camino Ingles is coming

    Hi, can anyone confirm if the new route at Bar Julia is currently in place? I start my Camino in 10 days and plan to stay at Meson Novo, splitting the stage at Bar Julia with Antonio collecting us.

    Camino Ingles July 2014

    Hi Neil, Found your blog, right at the start when I was looking and really enjoyed it. Doesn't seem to be many from Northern Ireland walking the Camino, never seen on the completed lists. Sounds as if you really are hooked, its something that...

    Camino Ingles Round 2 - July 2015

    Hi, The biggest lessons I learnt were to split day one, as we took too much out of ourselves walking from Ferrol to Pontedeume on first day last year. This also meant we didn't get to spend anytime at the beach just before Pontedeume, which look great. Also we will both be...

    Group of 12 - May 2015

    We walked the Camino last year in 6 days with no training and to be honest day 1 almost ended our Camino (my blog is on this forum). It is a very long stage from Ferrol to Pontedueme and we both suffered. The decision if we should carry on, on day 2 was touch and go. We will be walking again...

    Thoughts on this plan...and a couple more questions

    We stayed in Bar Luis in Pontedeume and I can recommend. It is central, reasonable, serve food and friendly owners. Betanzos was stayed in the new alburgue. Cheap, clean and bright. Only downside is they don't provide blankets but can't fault it apart from that. Bruma was Meson Vento, we...

    Any Pearls?

    I agree with Al make time to enjoy beach at Cabales. We didn't last year but making a point of doing so this year by stopping at Neda on first day. As Albertinho mentioned, I would also recommend staying at Meson do Vento and splitting that leg with Antonio picking you up at Bar Julio. Our...
