      ian&linda reacted to Simperegrina's post in the thread €12000 fine on Route Napoleon? with Like Like.
      My post wasn’t about fines that have been imposed because of breaking lockdown rules, but about my personal opinion that some more fine wielding wouldn’t go amiss. There are plenty of cases (I’ve added links to my OP) where people do stupid...

      I’ll second the wise pilgrim app. It was very helpful to me

      ian&linda reacted to alexwalker's post in the thread Apps on the Camino & Random Tech Help! with Like Like.
      I have walked many Caminos. The @wisepilgrim app for Camino Frances is all I need for the purposes you mention, and much more. I can easily read it all with my glasses on (I am 70...). It will cost you 5€, with lifelong updates incuded. For...

      ian&linda reacted to Quahaug's post in the thread Middle or end Sept? with Like Like.
      Prepare for rain just in case. I walked the last week in September and the first week in October last year and it was perfect weather. A week after I finished there were torrential rains and flooding for over weeks straight. So you never know...

      ian&linda replied to the thread Is it permissible to skip Sarria to Santiago?.
      We walked the whole CF last year and Sarria to SDC was some of the most enjoyable walking. The Galician countryside is so beautiful. If you avoid the set stages you can still find some solitude, although Sarria to Portomarin was like doing the...

      ian&linda reacted to trecile's post in the thread Booking accommodation - email or WhatsApp best? with Like Like.
      I prefer to use WhatsApp, because people seem to reply to it more quickly than email. But if the place doesn't have a number on WhatsApp I email. Third choice is phone call.

      ian&linda reacted to Bradypus's post in the thread SJPDP vs Sarria for Newby with Like Like.
      Do you intend to return and walk some more if you do choose SJPDP to Pamplona? If so then that seems a reasonable choice - though with a week to walk I'd go further and aim for somewhere like Estella, Los Arcos or Logroño. If you think this will...

      ian&linda reacted to Jodean's post in the thread Starting the walk in the afternoon with Like Like.
      Consider walking from Sarria to Barbadelo and sleep there. It will give you a lovely morning start with no crowds for hours and still allow you to get to Portomarine with time for lunch and laundry the next day. Casa Barbadelo has great food and...

      ian&linda reacted to gmag's post in the thread Reservations CF with Like Like.
      Hello, I write with the experience of a hospitalero, and there are a few more of us who think in a very similar way. As they say Bradypus and Ian &Linda you can book perfectly two days in advance. But (big BUT)... If you book through Booking...
