We are walking the coastal at the end of May and decided to go ahead and book most nights as there are 3 of us. We have the option to cancel as several were through booking com, so are still somewhat flexible. The only place so far we have to wing it is in Armenteira, as the monastery isn't...
Same thing just last week but fortunately for me I had heard of this happening so I didn't fall for it. I sent booking, com the info as well as the hotel I booked at. Makes me mad that these things happen so often these days. Be vigilant all.
I found the same thing regarding Icebreaker standing by their quality. I wrote to them about several fairly new underwear with holes in them and they refused any return as I didn't have the receipt. I would not have thought to keep it as I never thought I'd need to return them, but at that price...

I've walked my last 2 camino during the Easter holidays and loved it. The first was the Frances in 2019 and we left SJPDP just before Samana Santa week and yes there was a bit of a bottle neck at the beginning so make sure to book your accommodations during for this time. We were in Logrono for...
Hello! Unfortunately I did not get that early of a start...was up late, couldn't sleep. I have a green pack. I'm debating which route to take from Seville and will decide once I get there. Hope to meet up tonight. Are you staying in Guillena? I will be at the Alb. Luz. Maybe we'll meet up...
