    Botafumeiro burner

    I am trying to find out if the butofumerio burner is used anymore at any of the Pilgrim masses. When I last walked the Camino is was used almost everyday at the Pilgrim mass.

    Introducing 'The TIPBOT'

    I use at least 3 different techniques when walking with my pacer poles depending on my mood, the terrain and how fast I am going. I use the two you described plus a double pole tap at the same time. Variety is a spice of life. If I am in a really good mood a little dance with my poles can...

    Thinking of doing Frances - Salvador - Primitvo

    This combo sounds very interesting to me also. I will be starting my 2nd Frances in May of 2017 and this may give me the added adventure I am looking for. How well marked is the Salvador and is there an English guide for this part of the combo. How long will it take to get to Santiago if I do...

    Those Dreary Urban Settings....

    Thanks rappahannock_rev for the quick answer. Change comes very slowly in most institutions that have been around for centuries. I am a RC and have attended services in the Anglican Church and have noticed the many similarities with the Catholic Church service.

    Route Napolean versus Valcarlos

    In 2013 I walked the Napoleon route with a stop in Orrison. I had a amazing time and meet some life long friends in Orisson. Next May , 2017 I plan on doing the Valcarlos route with a stop in Valcarlos. I expect it will be just as amazing as the Napoleon route but different.

    worried about being a slow walker

    Don't worry about Brierley's designated stops. You can stop where ever you want to stop. I would plan my day the night before and then find an albergue that was close to that location. This is your walk not Brierley's . Have a great journey.

    The Meseta

    I walked the Meseta in May 2013. I loved it. The peace and quiet when walking was magical. The spring flowers were out and the multi shades of green fields was breath taking. I wanted to walk the WHOLE camino not just the fun bits but in fact the whole way was all the fun bits. Looking...
