  Hola! Not quite 'live' yet, but 43 hours after walking out my front door I arrived in Valencia a couple of hours ago. Had a shower, then a nice meal and a beer in a bar across the road. Now ready for some sleep, but must share one thing first...

  I will be five days behind you! I walked it 8 years ago (when I was 8 years younger:)). It is a wonderful Way. Buen Camino!

  My thought: If it's something you really care about, leave it home. If you don't really care about it, give it a try. Too mamy variables at every point along the way to be sure it would make it to Spain and back. Walking sticks, whether metal...

  I think it’s the ‘five foot long’ and feigning disability parts of the question which are the more problematic. Once you’ve ‘backed off’ and thought about it, have another go. Other that the practical matter of fitting a five foot stick in a...

  My professional musician friends tend to buy a seat for their instruments. I'm not friends with the Rolling Stones who, naturally, just buy the whole bl**dy airplane ;)

  Honestly I hope you leave it home because I hope TSA would not allow it. I would not feel very good if I saw someone walk on a plane these days with a 5 foot stick. With all the incidents that happen on planes and the general level of insanity...
