    Finally found reasonable airfare from U.S.!

    I'm leaving a week before bshea and I got a $898 RT from Orlando to Miami to Madrid on American. I will take the train from Madrid to Irun to begin the Camino del Norte. I could have gotten the same trip for $880 today. Very hard to judge when the right time to buy. Buen Camino!

    Just Finished The Camino Frances St Jean To Santiago Some Thoughts

    I tried using Mundicamino to make plans for my accommodations without success. They kept telling me how much it would cost but when I asked what I was paying for they refused to answer. I am very disappointed with their sales reps and lack of customer service. I cannot imagine what it would have...

    Question? My navigation skills on this site are not too good yet. Can anyone show me where to find a listing of hotels/inns along the Camino del Norte? I'm probably cheating by staying in a hotel, but I need a comfortable bed and a bath each day. Whatever you do, DO NOT use Mundicamino.

    Perfume/cologne on the Camino

    Daaaaaaang! I have been shamed into not taking a shower and not wearing a splash of cologne. But the real horror is that 7 out of 10 women don't like me.

    Perfume/cologne on the Camino

    The main thing for me is to NOT be offensive in any way to any person on the pilgrimage. I'll be taking two showers per day because I choose to stay at places with a comfortable bed and a nice shower after walking all day. I don't want to have to search for a bed every day and not know what I'm...

    Perfume/cologne on the Camino

    What is more offensive, someone that smells good or someone that stinks? I shower at least twice per day and each time I put on a splash of cologne after. People that don't shower are usually the problem and overcompensate with a large dose of cologne. Just take showers people.

    Gatorade or Powerade works for me. You can also add Gin as a supplement...

    Just Finished The Camino Frances St Jean To Santiago Some Thoughts

    As a 50 something American I am appalled at the behavior of more and more of my people in foreign countries. Several years ago in Mexico, I had to admonish some younger Americans on their attitude of entitlement in a foreign country. It even happens in my own neighborhood. I'm sorry you had to...
