      If the bar is busy, sure I'll bring them to the bar regardless if I might look a bit daft. It's the nice, kind thing to do. Also, have worked in restaurants for many, many years. In our view, it's always appreciated.

      I always do it. Seems like just a nice thing to do. Most of the bars that I went into didn't have a lot of help and I don't mind doing a little bit to help keep them in business. You certainly don't get rich running a bar in the small towns that...

      The Restaurant at the Hotel San Anton Abad in Villafranca Montes de Oca (Ok, they offer Albergue, too). Parrillada Xacobeo in Triacastela (classical patio style) L'Incontro in SdC (IMHO the best Italian in SdC)

      1) Almost every pueblo on the Francese has a church. 2) Most (not all) will have an evening mass, at 7 or 8 pm, depending on the season. 3) The time may not be posted or may not be posted accurately; 4) hospitaleros should know the time (some...

      In 2017 we were able to attend pilgrim Masses in Sarria, Portomarin, Melide and Arzua. Can't recall, (and didn't write down ) the church names but they were obvious. And if not , just ask your hospitalero or hotel clerk and I bet they can point...

      kathyandthomas reacted to Nelle's post in the thread SJPdP one night or two? with Like Like.
      If you have the time to spend two nights in SJPdP, it’s a great way to acclimate to the time zone and the energy of what’s to come. At least that was my experience. Last fall, I flew from the US to Paris, spent the night at a small hotel near...
