    LIVE from the Camino Here We Go!

    Patrick here, Packed and ready. Heading out to MIA in about 3 hours. Should be in Ferrol roughly 24 hours from now. :shock: Will post whenever possible.

    Hi, I'm Patrick, and my Camino starts in Miami, Florida this coming Monday, Nov. 29, 2010. I hope to be in Ferrol Tuesday evening at around 6:30pm, with an early morning start on Wednesday. I'm as ready as I'm going to be. :shock: My pilgrimage is for my son Gabriel, a blessing bestowed...

    Interesting. Are there many wifi spots along the English route?

    A relative is letting me borrow an iPhone not currently subscribed to any service plan. Is there a temporary plan or minutes I can purchase once I arrive in Spain to call the US?

    Help!

    It looks like I'll be arriving in Ferrol at around 6:30pm on Tuesday. Will I have any trouble finding a place to stay at that hour?

    Biking?

    Thanks! I think I'll stick with walking. Renting a bike is beyond my budget anyway.

    Biking?

    Just out of curiosity... If for whatever reason I decide to bike the trail instead of walking it: 1. Are bikes available for rent in Ferrol? 2. Does biking qualify for getting the seals?

    Here's some very useful info from another member. Look for Bill Murphy's detailed account of his trip. traveling-to-from-the-camino/topic1056.html

    Help!

    Thanks, daesdemar and congratulations! You must've been horrified when you saw your knee swollen like that. I read your travel log. It's a great help in visualizing what this is going to be like.

    Help!

    I'm doing the Camino the first week of next month, and I'm afraid I'm not prepared. I'm arriving in Santiago early Tuesday afternoon 11/30, and flying back Monday. I know from there I can take a bus to Ferrol, spend the night and get started on Wednesday. In Ferrol I'll be looking for the...

    Weather?

    Very interesting. From what I'm seeing here, throughout Spain lows hover in the 30 degree F range, which is certainly manageable. However, as you mentioned, rain is heaviest at the beginning of the year, particularly around Santiago, but even during dry season it's still wetter than the rest of...

    Weather?

    My plan was to do the camino in September or October, but it's starting to look like I may have to push that back a few months due to finances. When is it too cold to do the trek? Are January or February a bad time of year? How much snow do they get up there? I don't mind wearing a coat, but I...
