Express Bourricot has more flexible pickup times. Be careful to note the pickup times for Ivar though as its only available for like an hour a day. Cost-wise, I think Ivar's is a little cheaper overall especially for smaller sized packages.
I used Spain's regular mail to send to Ivar. I...

Hi CW Buff,
I'm looking at booking hotel la marina in Cee and they offer a tasting menu for $30 pp. Was wondering if you saw this or even booked it? Or if there were other recommendations you might offer instead? thanks..

i havent tried the sites u mentioned but have been using the free version of wise pilgrim iphone app for all caminos. When u enter into the frances route, it will show each stage and what seevices are available as well as the distance from the next town. The feature that I use the most is...
I heard this evening that the office in SJPP stopped issuing credenciales to limit how many were walking and to relieve some pressure on the albergues. I am not sure if that is country-wide mandate or just sjpp because someone can just bus to another city and pick up a credenciale from there. I...
