    Avoiding the breakfast trap?

    My wife and I loved our breakfast. We usually planned to stop at the first open cafe. Always a cappuccino coffee, chocolatine and a freshly squeezed orange juice when available. And of course your first rest!

    Would you stop at places that lack the Camino hospitality?

    The number of times my wife would tell me to get a coffee/wine etc... because she had to pee! I would walk up to the bar and she would run to the bathroom. These people are running a business to cater to our needs. At the end of the day they needs profits. Simple as that.

    LIVE from the Camino Two weeks in 300kms

    Hi pilgrims, my wife and I have been walking for two weeks. First Orrison, if you can book it do so! Great experience. Different than other albergues. Ronscevalles is a bust.

    Hi Kerry, my wife and I are also leaving SJPDP on September 5. We are only going to Orisson and then relax for the evening. We are afraid that the 28kms with at least 20 going upwards will kill us on our first day? We are trying to book Orisson but have had no response yet. Buen Camino and...
