    Avoid soup, it tends to leak through backpack fabric. A roasted chicken or leg of lamb with a decent bottle of Bierzo and a side salad would be my choice though I’d probably prefer it if someone else carried it. You’re looking at a 6hr walk...

    Cerdo is pork… so I’m assuming this is some cured pork dish that I have not yet encountered. There are two grocers in Campiello (last ones prior to the Hospitales). You can likely get it or something else that appeals. I took a croissant and...

    I admit it…I love my brilliant orange/red Decathlon poncho. I suppose it’s’ our fate to always be muttering under our breath on Camino…whilst on trail “WHY did I bring XYZ, my pack would be so much lighter if I hadn’t “….then once in the...
