    Foncebadon!!!

    Yes, that's how I remember it in 2014 also!

    where to start with 18-20 walking days?

    I would also recommend Astorga - Santiago. That's a very beautiful stretch of the CF. But the singing nuns at Carrion are really special and I would recommend anyone to try to stay with them if you do find yourself on that part of the Way.

    Foncebadon!!!

    On my second Camino Frances, and it's been 9 years. The single biggest surprise has been Foncebadon. Oh my goodness, what a transformation since 2014.

    June 2023 Weather Predictions

    Just arrived in Logrono, seven days out from SJPdP, and haven't been rained on once. Before I started, the forecast was for rain every day.🤷

    Just wondering, did anyone ever walk for a deceased pet/animal?

    Not exactly the same, but on my first Camino in 2014, the most unusual Pilgrim I encountered was a tiny French Woman. She was walking with a bird cage containing a canary. The word was that the canary was the soul of her dead husband and she was taking his soul to Santiago. She astounded us all...

    A roll of doggie doo bags is a very useful addition to your kit. Minimal size and weight but large number of bags. Good for unfinished pieces of food also.

    Booking Orisson

    Looking for advice. I've tried booking into Orisson for a date in mid-May but am having no luck getting a response to either their web page booking service, or an email. I do understand that they are currently closed, but wondering whether anyone is doing their booking admin. I'm only anxious...

    Which guide would you carry

    Thanks for that. Glad it's not my imagination that I couldn't change the Brierley font size.

    Which guide would you carry

    Thanks for your recommendations. I'm trying to decide which guide to use. I used something in 2014 that I can't find anymore. I've looked at the Brierly kindle version on my android phone and it is just too small print. Can you comment on how the Moon Guide or the Village To Village guide...
