    Portuguese Way from Lisbon

    Thanks for that tip, p2000. I will get the stamp during the 3 day stay there. The walk-around Lisbon seems very interesting but unfortunately not for me. My wife has a condition that makes it unable to walk for long stretches, which is also why she goes home while I do the camino on my own.

    Thanks Kat I have read many of your posts and also your "inner self" publication. Excellent reading indeed. My arm is being twisted by a buddy of mine who wants to travel with me but wants to WALK the Camino, so I may just change my mind about biking this session and leave it for a future...
