Anyone wanting to ride share a taxi from carrion de los condes to moratinos or thereabouts on Monday 29? There is no bus from carrion de los condes on Monday, just found that out. Please reply on here to Keith

We are about to arrive in Porto this week, can some kind person direct us to a list of refugios, hostels etc for the Porto to Santiago leg please? Much appreciated - Keith
