    Spiritual variant (get your two stamps per day!!)

    COVID New start dates?

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Three-minute video guide: what to do at albergues

    The suggested procedure appears reasonable yet daunting when I am tired and hungry at the end of a walk. My dad had a phrase that seems to apply here. "Make haste, slowly!"

    Osprey Atmos AG 65 hip pockets question

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD A ray of hope

    According to the latest information that I have seen, at this time no tourists from America will be allowed entry into Spain. Spikes in Covid-19 preclude us from making a journey this year.
