    Message from the Roncesvalles albergue - a difficult day.

    No need to apologize, fun story. Honestly though, back in 1982 the only kiwi I knew of was the fruit in the grocery store, so yes we stand in lines, not queues. And technically, the naughty pilgrims cut the line, they didn’t jump it. 😂 😎👣🌻

    Message from the Roncesvalles albergue - a difficult day.

    Perhaps but I’m sure it didn’t say anything about all Germans not knowing how to wear clothing while in public. The post I was replying to referred that Americans don’t know how to queue, not used to doing so. This based on their accents, not even fact. 😎👣🌻

    Message from the Roncesvalles albergue - a difficult day.

    The answer to your question is in my post. Making a point, there is no need to stereotype anywhere, especially on this forum. I haven’t read anything negative about Germans or the Irish, Aussies or Canadians, not even Koreans, or the local Spanards. But Americans are fair game?? NO!! It needs...

    Message from the Roncesvalles albergue - a difficult day.

    You’re right, not racist. Thank you for the word that escaped me. Stereotyping. I’m not offended either but rather tired of Americans getting dragged through the mud because of a few classless individuals. Can the finger pointing stop? I’ve witnessed bad behavior from other non-Americans but I...

    Message from the Roncesvalles albergue - a difficult day.

    It’s always unfair to single out any group because of a few bad apples. Seems a bit racist like stereotyping to me. We Americans are very familiar with queues perhaps just like every other nation under the sun. Standing in line (queue) is a daily pastime in America. Here’s a quick Google search...

    Casa Ivar has abandoned me?

    You’ve made my point brilliantly. What does American anything have to do with the OP’s post. Nothing!! Thank you and God Bless. 😎👣🌻

    Casa Ivar has abandoned me?

    Wouldn’t you avoid anything with a bad reputation? I’m not sure I understand how you differentiate Europe to America in this way. Things not going according to plan happen everywhere in the world. But I must say being an American we are no strangers to it. How does one think America became a...

    LIVE from the Camino The old man and his shop in Castrojeriz is alive and kickin’!

    Wow! He's still going strong, what a blessing. I know exactly where this is, nearly next to the muni albergue. My first visit was in 2013, I don't recall what I purchased but obviously I needed it. ;) In 2016 I was looking for knee support. I couldn't find anything as I walked through so I...

    LIVE from the Camino Working as hospitalero at Albergue Municipal de La Virgen del Camino

    I believe I stayed here in Sept 2013. I decided not to stay in Leon so I pressed on to La Vergin del Camino. It was a bit of a walk off the main road but worth it. I wasn’t feeling well the next morning. I was graciously allowed to stay an extra night and was so grateful for it. It was my only...

    Bus station or airport for spending the night in Santiago?

    Great info here. This is the way I’d go. Safe, clean and overnight passengers are the norm.
