    Phil W reacted to J Willhaus's post in the thread Bar etiquette with Like Like.
    There was a long thread on this topic recently. Some who live in Spain said this may disrupt the work flow and at the least seem eccentric. Thinking about it, I don't usually return my glassware or plates in the US unless there is some kind of...

    There is a bus that goes along this route pretty closely. The Monbus route leaves from Sarria weekdays in the afternoons and stops along most of the major stage towns on the Camino. https://www.monbus.es/ I have attached a pdf of the schedule so...

    Phil W reacted to t2andreo's post in the thread Alert Theft at Roncesvalles with Like Like.
    NEVER - LIKE EVER - be separated from your valuables, even for a moment. Cargo pants with lots of pockets help. Cross torso bags, like a fanny or bum bag worn cross-body are also good. The less it looks like a woman's handbag - purse, the more...

    I'm sure this info has already been shared, but here's an update: the Tuna are still working their magic under the arches in the Praza Obradoiro (facing the catehdral) in the evenings. I was there two nights ago. I'm guessing as of 10pm onwards...

    Hi Guys This is just for info really; but if mods want to they can delete! For this May's Camino i have gone back to my Talon 33 (so much less stuff this time; in fact everything is in the top brain apart from spare clothes and electronics)...

    Phil W reacted to HBS60's post in the thread Is this powered USB hub setup safe? with Like Like.
    Thanks! I actually just found this one that has 2 USB-A ports, a USB port, several power inlets (whatever they are called), and ordered it. The Camino provides good feedback and advice, and I’m not even there! Thanks...

    I have one like this. It is not powered. Can plug in my CPAP and also use it to charge my phone, but I don't have an Iphone. Do you need 4 ports? Can you just charge two things at a time? Edit: I looked on Amazon and the same company also has a...
