    Regarding Lipton's - yep, not a great cuppa. Unless it is specifically Lipton's Yellow Label. Coming in a yellow box is not enough - it must state 'Yellow Label' - that variant is actually a decent, honest black tea. It's hard to find in the USA...

    On my last CF I had tea all the time and I did not have one complaint. I always asked for tea with lemon. Nearly all cafes did the tea in an amazing variety of tea pots. I found it it all wonderful and I'm looking forward to doing the same next...

    psalmone1 reacted to Hiawatha's post in the thread Painful corns on foot - any advice? with Love - Red heart Love - Red heart.
    There is discomfort , there is pain and then there is ' Oh Hell why in blazes is that hot dagger sticking into my toe ' agony. I chose the moderate discomfort of having it dug out, a perfectly bearable inconvenience dealt with by a simple...

    Take your own tea bags (they don't weigh much). You can ask for hot water - but do offer payment

    I like a strong cup of tea so as you might already know spain and tea don't go together. I take my own teabags where ever I go even on the camino. I put about 30 teabags in a zip lock bag squeezed the air out and you're good to go. Milk is not a...
