    I'm one of the bare minimum sort. On my last Camino Frances I just collected sellos from the albergues I stayed in and didn't bother with two per day after Sarria as I had no intention of asking for a Compostela. I only used one side of the SJPDP...

    I usually only get one per day where I stay up until Sarria, unless it is something like a church or some kind of special donativo stand or something. Then I give a small donation and get an extra stamp.

    I am sitting in front of León cathedral having lunch and preparing for what sounds like a hot spell coming. The first half, full of physical challenges was spectacular. A few thoughts on March travel from our experience: Beds- always available...

    Hi Cathy - take a look at this map. It looks to me like there is a path from St Palais that joins the Chemin de Poste in Helette. I've included the link to the website. I have to say I find the website a little tricky to navigate, but @Monasp...

    We also stayed at Pasajes de San Juan. That first day was brutal on our late 60 year old knees. After a couple of days of more or less constant up and down we ended up bagging the Norte and switched to the Frances. Pasajes is a beautiful...
