    Best guidebook?

    Sandy Brown’s Cicerone guide for the Way of St. Francis is superb. And he has a helpful Facebook page.

    'Edit' gone AWOL?

    Hello Ivar, I cannot find the “edit” setting for my pilgrim books post. I appreciate your help. Also a question: Is there a way I can delete the post and create a new one for Camino Sunrise?

    Via Francigena

    We loved the Way of St. Francis in Italy last year. If you are interested, my wife created a short slide show about our trek; it is on my website, regspittle.com Sandy Brown wrote a guidebook about the trek.

    Reading while on the Camino...Decision made

    My wife and I both read books on our iPhones on our most recent trek and it worked out well. We used the Kindle app. If you want a Camino book to read, you could try mine: Camino Sunrise, on Amazon. Happy trails to you.

    Disparaging "The Way"

    “The Way” gave my wife the idea that we should walk the Camino; we have just finished our fifth long-distance trek as a result.

    Carry-on Size Backpack

    I have a Deuter 30L that expands to 40L. When not expanded, it is carryon size...then I pack food on the expandable part when trekking. Best wishes!

    Barbara from Santa Barbara

    Footwear

    I am a boot man myself...I like the added ankle support, especially on rocky surfaces. My Salomans are waterproof and have kept my feet dry during two quite rainy days here in England on a trek I am doing now. I wear rain pants that cover to ankle length over the boots.

    Snoring

    I used a thin tape that spread over my nose...I found it in a pharmacy. No one poked me with a trekking pole, so maybe it worked!

    Can you replace pacer pole rubber tips with leki rubber tips?

    If the tips you get are too big, a little duct tape around your pole tip will adapt in a pinch.
