    I leave Friday and although I have been relatively calm, I suddenly haven't been able to sleep. Some excitement, nervousness, anxiety. During the day I seem to regain focus and calm but at night ..... ugghh.... Just keep looking forward to the exhaustion from a good days walk and from being...

    Backpacker's rain gear + reading on the trail?

    Haha Stephen, I actually was excited since lime green is my favorite color. Also with 2/3 outfits geared to hiking, I decided to pick some fun colors in my shirts. So I think the pink would just make everyone smile. :)

    Atmospheric Altus Poncho

    I used 111223333 aas my business id. When I looked online it said it's your social so I formatted it to reflect 9 digits. Still didn't work. I went on the Spanish website and viola - it finally worked. Still worried but within 3 days I received my quality poncho. :) Hope this helps.

    Backpacker's rain gear + reading on the trail?

    I will be on my first Camino September 2013 and have most necessary items minus the rain gear. Any words of wisdom? The first pancho I was thinking of is half the cost of the second so I do want to be smart about my choice. See details below. Also I want to have a Camino experience and I...
