    Getting Camino Cert at the Pilgrims Office Santiago

    I notice that the Pilgrim's Reception Office web page gives two different Opening Hours. First it says 10AM until 18:00 pm; then later on the same web page it says Opening Hours from 9am until 7pm. Does anyone have current information for those of us hiking this fall? Thanks

    shower/evening foot wear

    I have taken flip flops on two Caminos for shower only- I take a cheap pair of tennis shoes to wear at night. This year (my third camino) I have not yet decided--I would prefer only two pairs as opposed to three counting my Lowa low cut waterproof hike shoes. I am looking at Tevas.
