Hi Gauvins
I am also from Canada and I brought my iPhone and blogged every night except at one or two places that wifi was bad or nonexistent. I did not get any plan but because I had an iphone If I was at a wifi I could text to people at home who also had an iPhone for free. I also used Tango...
Your phone will be ok. Just put it somewhere that is dry and it will dry out overnight or a few days. I dropped mine in water and I thought it was finished but when I picked it up late the next day it was working!!!!
It's nice having a phone but not necessary on the Camino.
Buen Camino

I was there the 3rd week of May this year and I know for sure that the fleece would be enough. You can also bring the liner for backup if find you care cold. My plan was to use my fleece jacket if I was cold and I never used it but I did use the liner on its own a few times. I think nearly all...

I am on the Camino right now in fact just came into Santiago. Definitely don't wear your boots in the evening. Your feet need the break until the next morning. Last minute I bought croc sandles and they were amazing. Not the big crocs but sandals great also for the shower. Very light and...
Hi Stellere
Thank you so much for sharing that information. I have taken the details and my husband and I will definitely go to some or all of those places as we leave in one week from now and will start walking the 22nd May'14. It's just great to get suggestions like that. We are so looking...

Hi Keith,
Thanks for getting back, I think I have a better visual on it now.
As I'm going to be doing the Camino Frances in May it might be a good idea to pick one up before I go.
Thanks again.
Buen Camino,
Frances.
Hi Gitti
Thank you so much for reproducing your Camino list here. I had my list done but looking at yours I have now added a few more items. I just have 2 questions...
1. What about a roll up Matt in case there is a need to sleep outdoors. They are big but light 10oz/292g.
2. What did your...

Hi Footex
Could you please put up your information on your blog as it didn't show at the end of your comment.
Thanks and looking forward to reading it.

Great ideas about stocking up for the walk into Roncesvalles. Thanks for the reminder. If Orisson costs 34euro for the night does this also include the dinner ?
Thanks

I am in the process of booking my trip and discovered Ryanair flies out of Santiago to Dublin so it is quite possible they fly to Paris. The cost to Dublin was $130. Which was quite good.
Hi Mrs DD
I am so sorry for your loss. I think walking the Camino will contribute greatly to getting you through this very sad time. I too will be walking the Camino in May and the planning alone has given me so much to think about. My husband Tom will be coming with me and we hope to start...
