      Ivan_Prada reacted to t2andreo's post in the thread No room at the inn (Najera) with Like Like.
      As C_Clearly correctly noted, above, Booking.com does not have access to 100% of all rooms at a given property. Proprietors typically hold several rooms off the Booking.com service. It always pays to contact the property directly. Gronze.es has...

      Camelback do a similar tube attachment for their Eddy bottles. They work really well. One of the big pluses of having a water bottle outside your pack is ease of access for top ups as you come across fountains. Frequent refreshes give you...

      Sure, I get that — but what did you use for drinking when you weren't wearing your pack? As I explained in my post, what intrigues me about this system is that it enables one water bottle to do double duty both during and after walking every day...

      While reading through one of the more recent water bottle vs. hydration bladder debates, I was reminded of something I came across a few weeks ago, bookmarked, and promptly forgot about until said recent debate made me think of it again...

      Ivan_Prada reacted to trecile's post in the thread One (water) bottle to rule them all? with Like Like.

      Ivan_Prada reacted to Kirkie's post in the thread Weather in 12 days with Like Like.
      You have a poncho, smart pilgrim. I live where we might have four seasons and weather types in one day, so really, the best comment I can offer is congrats for getting the poncho. Your next question, though you might not know it, is - which...

      Closing this thread because it is devolving into personal attacks I find it inappropriate to tell women that they must be chaperoned by a man in order to be safe on the Camino. While women are usually the victims of this type of crime, both...

      For anyone who’s unsure, I just checked the date and we are in 2024. Or, at least most of us are.

      Ivan_Prada reacted to J Walking's post in the thread Staying in Armenteira with Like Like.
      We stayed as pilgrims at the monestery with the nuns for two nights. What a delight! The steep walk up from Combarro was lovely, solitary, and difficult for this 73 year old. Therefore, my husband and I had sent an email to hna ( Sister) Paula...

      Oh, on the contrary, I love celebrating my birthdays nowadays. I so very much appreciate every time I am still here to celebrate. Especially being able to do so by walking another camino!
