    Old and hopefully not in the way.

    I found the exact same thing! 😀

    Rumpl blankets?

    Yeah, but I love my Woobie. Especially now that they have a zip and can be used as a bag or a blanket. Having said that, I took my snugpack bag which only weighed slightly more than the woobie.

    Questions from a New Pilgirm

    I would often use the Booking.com app to identify a potential place to stay and then check to see if it had a way to book directly with the Albergue. I used Wise Pilgrim, Camino Ninja, and Booking.com to plan the next two days and would book what looked good for the next day. Occasionally I...

    Some basic questions about waking up etiquette

    I put my phone on vibrate and placed it under my pillow or inside the pillow case. As long as I had alerts turned off it worked very well.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Getting a rapid antigen test in Barcelona

    Asked our hotel to arrange an appointment for testing. They set it up, we showed up, and that was that.

    How do you feel when you finish a camino?

    Finished Primitivo route yesterday. Really felt a bit lightheaded and just absorbed the moment. Then saw a group of people I had walked for days with and the introspection gave way to shared joy on the accomplishment. So, satisfaction, happiness, and a sense of a job well done. I actually got...

    The queues in Santiago

    Literally just picked up my compostela and these instructions were spot on! I would have been very confused if I had just walked up and tried to work it out myself. Thank you very much for posting this.

    It was the Hotel Palacio de Meras. I splurged and stayed at the hotel. They do have a very nice Albergue as well that I would recommend.

    There seem to be some beds available. Though you may want to book the day before and day after hospitalers since those are choke points with very limited alternatives in the immediate area.

    Ended up taking a recovery/rest day in Tineo. Nice place, great atmosphere. A few old injuries started playing up and I was running out of juice. After fattening up for a day I should be good to go on the 12th. Unable to book Samblismo so have a spot at La Montera in Borres. Trying to book...
