    I didn't time anything well, I just went back to Spain when I had the itch and followed advice on this forum as to where to go. As far as crossings, the one that was major was the first time I've ever started across any body of water and said...

    Peregrinopaul reacted to Vacajoe's post in the thread Holy Week Experience with Like Like.
    I was in Zaragoza (Camino Catalan) for Good Friday 2022 and inexpensive rooms were plentiful. They host one of the longest GF processions in the world, so it was quite a sight to see but oddly uncrowded. In 2019, we celebrated Easter in...

    I was lucky to be in Ferrol for one of the Semana Santa parades in 2022. It was an amazing experience. (The thumbnails look low quality but you should be able to click on them to see a high res image).

    Hola todos! Well, I leave for MAD in a week for Camino #2 ... YES!? To be honest, I'm unsure. I'm looking for advice regarding a starting point - SJPDP, Roncevalles, Pamplona or Tiebas - and some encouragement. Looking at the weather forecast...

    Paul Garland has posted a notice on Facebook that the Portomarin Bridge will be close on 1 April for seismic stress testing. Pilgrims can cross the Mino on the lower Roman bridge but without their backpacks. The packs will be subject to a...

    Peregrinopaul reacted to Pafayac's post in the thread Portomarin Bridge Closure with Like Like.
    Portomarin is the very location for today: - It is not a harbour, despite the name of "porto". - It is even not seaside, while called "marin". - Its several centuries old church has been built on 1962...

    A provocative title (for a Brit at least :cool: ) about the busy Holy Week for Santiago and the pilgrim office. Despite some atrocious weather - Storm Nelson included - across Spain which led to the cancellation of many Semana Santa events...

    I absolutely love geology. I have hiked the Canyonlands, Escalante, Zion, Grand Canyon, etc and those amazing rock layers always speak to me. Thank you for taking the time to explain the geology of this area in Spain.
