    Finding the statues that mark the “half way” point near Sahagun

    Just beyond the hermitage after you cross the little bridge. Within sight of Sahagún.

    Where to stay in SJPDP- September 2024

    Pics of Gite Bidean. They are closed on Sundays. I wanted to reserve for Saturday AND Sunday, He let me stay and on Sunday I had the whole place to myself.

    Where to stay in SJPDP- September 2024

    Gite Bidean. Very spacious and loaded with cool household furniture. Most beds are individual twins. It’s down on the lower level, so you only have to go up the wretched hill once - to visit the Pilgrim Office for your credential.

    Stamping process

    Anywhere and anytime. I am a unapologetic stamp addict and can easily amass a dozen in a day. My favorite is going to a post office, buying a stamp, pasting it in my credential, and getting the local postmark with the date. This one is from León, but the name LEÓN is nearly hidden. I also...

    Bag forwarding on the Camino Frances, March/April 2024

    I think the whole Francés was €155 last year and I had something like 45 stages.

    Correos Luggage transfer

    I paid in advance for the entire CF in ‘22 and ‘23. No issue. Not sure what you mean by “country locked to Spain.” Correos only operates in Spanish territory, so your pick-ups and drop-offs will always be “in Spain.” You can, however, purchase the service from anywhere. Can you put up a...

    Attending Sunday Mass

    My feelings as well. I still suffer “nun-guilt” from 50+ years ago. At that time, there was no such thing as Mass on Saturdays. You either went on Sunday or you earned a one-way ticket to hell with no chance of parole. So, if you can now go on Saturday for Sunday, why can’t you go on MONDAY...

    Sello (stamp) Obsession: Is there a medical term for this?

    I vote for the SELLOITIS I am hopelessly and unashamedly addicted to the SELLOS and vote for the SELLOLITIS suggestion. Last May through mid-July, on the Camino Francés, I completely filled SEVEN of the SJPP credentials (70+ squares each) and had to get one of the much smaller Spanish ones in...

    SJPDP-SDC in 32 days-is this realistic?

    Gronze.com divides it into 33 stages. Depends on how many miles you feel you can cover. 32 days would be about 15 miles a day, every day with no rest. For me (now 76), that’s a lot. I did my first Camino in 2015. I had 36 walking days, and 5 rest days. I’ve done it 3 times since, all at a...
