I'm in Boadilla del Camino now and the onlt time everything was booked fully was during the week previous to and immediately around the long weekend. Locals travel and stay in albergues too.
In my friends albergues in Belorado and here in Boadilla and many of their friends places along the...
I loved Quattro Cantones in Belorado, great food and owners. En El Camino in Boadilla del Camino, Eduardo and family are fantastic, beautiful grounds, good food. El Robeleiro in Fonfria, very special. Barbadelo, fantastic accommodations, Casa Magica in Villatuerta, Bella Muxia in Muxia...Angel...
I created a list of must-see places of the places I only heard about from fellow pilgrims during my 2013 journey. In 2014 I visited them all without any regret. My most favourite places/sites are: Pamplona-pinchos. Monasterio Irache, Torres del Rio-12th century church Iglesia de Santo...
So Jill, did you do a third Camino? and did you learn something meaningful? I walked three Camino Frances from SJPDP to Muxia/Finisterre in 2013, 2014, and then unexpectedly in 2016 after my daughter died suddenly in October 2015.. I was having trouble with the loss and decided to walk...
There are many issues to consider when filming a movie, lighting due to time of day, the best angle to show the best scenery (why they seem to be walking east as opposed to west) and the fit of the content that they filmed (sitting at the albergue in Orisson) sometimes you need to mix scenery...

Gideon....Keens are the best for me as well. Two caminos in Keens (newly broken in boots both times). What is important is that your toes have room to move, especially after you've walked a few days and your feet swell and turn into Fred Flintstone feet. Tip...buy your boots a bit...
I'll be starting around the same time. Canadian Pilgrim patch on my pack. 2nd time as well also taking it a bit slower this time to see what I missed last year and enjoy every moment.
I walked from May 1 to June 14. Not too much rain on my days and when it did I stayed at the albergues as long as I could and by 9am the rain ALWAYS pettered off or stopped. I had only one problem with one full albergue in Pamplona, the muni one...but because of the anxiety and my desire to...
I walked from May 1 to June 14 2012 and the first three days with anxiety from SJPDP. I missed out at the Municipal Albergue in Pamplona by one person. I decided that I did NOT want to have any anxiety associated with worrying about accommodations so I bought a SIM card for my Samsung Android...
