I almost always got mine at check in. During the last 100 Km, I tried to get two per day (e.g., at a bar along the way) as required for the Compostella, but there was at least one day when I didn't get the second stamp. They don't seem to enforce... -
cbeckham replied to the thread Stamping process.I agree! That’s what I have been doing. I would have loved to get more stamps from churches but a lot of them are closed.

I would add something that struck me, and no-one else seems to have remarked: beware of the tourist/souvenir shops that loudly offer stamps, particularly as yo get within the 100km range. They pretty much demand that you buy something before...

We are staying at Casa Navarro in O Cebriero but I feel that the walk may be too much for me. I had a hard time today. I will be sending my backpack...

cbeckham replied to the thread Stamping process.Thank you all for your responses. I worried for no apparent reason. Getting a stamp has been easy except I am finding that a lot of the churches are closed. The weather has been rough also. Walking into Foncebadon was awful. Rain and high wind...
