Hey Nick.
I am thinking the same about the Portuguese route. Thinking about July. I will be walking alone so I hope there will be others on the Way by then.
Best of luck and Buen Camino
Hey guys. I know that there are meetings in Santiago on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday. It's very close to the Cathedral. It is opposite the Police Station. Does anyone know if there are meetings in Sarria?
Ah Gerard,
You're a star.
Thank you so much. You have made my life so much easier.
My mother would have been in a total panic.
I am a Dub but not a follower over the GAA so I'll put a few positive thoughts to Kerry getting Sam while on the Camino.
Once again, thank you.

Thanks nzPhreaddle.
I am still amazed at how helpful people on this forum are. Thank for the links. This is going to give me exactly what I need to make my decision. Thank you ever so much.
Fantastic. So I should start in Santarem. I have been researching all evening and this looks like a good suggestion. There are a few albergues open from Lisbon and I think I could walk to Tomar with 2 days to spare before returning to Lisbon. I just have to make a decision now. I really...
