    Thanks so much for the feedback. Sooooo, I liked the idea of knowing that I’d have a place to lay my head every night. I have already made reservations for all the nights based upon my old schedule. I guess my bottom line decision is whether I...

    When I started in Porto I was with a Portugese friend who wanted to meet up for a while so I walked and then took a Train/Metro back into Porto for 2 days in a row. That would mean you could take a Train/transport if you were too tired to walk on...

    The Camino Portugués starts in Lisbon, so starting in Porto is no more "complete" than starting from Tui, Barcelos, or Ponte de Lima. A "complete" Camino is one that ends in Santiago de Compostela, and if you want to receive a Compostela at the...

    Personally I'd try to walk what i could, even if I didn't reach the destination in one go. Does your route/budget allow you to split stages? I'm not familiar with the route you're walking -is there an easier camino you could do instead? Other...

    Anna and FraLuchi stayed with us years ago. When her husband got too long-winded and 'splainy,' Anna would stand behind his chair, waving her hands just like he waved his, and making faces! They were quite a pair. Gracious and full of stories...

    A fine beginning and well done, sir. My wander in wonder, from Lucca to Roma, begins in 24 days. The dogs will most likely be in Martigny, but not yet up at San Bernardo this early. Wishing you very happy wandering through the mountains and...

    PART 1. It was in 990AD that Pope John XV announced that Ziggy was to be appointed the 27th Archbishop of Canterbury. So, over 1000 years ago, and there had been 26 Archbishops already....Blimey. Ziggy had been educated at Glastonbury Abbey...
