    Where can I book a Queimada?

    You're quite right here. My point was that it is a spontaneous event and I feel that to book it is so artificial as to be pointless. I am unhappy with tradition being turned into commerce. That includes Christmas and camino culture.

    Where can I book a Queimada?

    Such rudeness is uncalled for. I dont share your views but let it pass. Your post is nothing but baiting. Very dishonorable, very dishonest. Others found the queimada booking odd too.

    The Santiago Enigma

    It is true that if mystery is explained, then the illusion is shattered. Many people cannot face that. God loves us? Tell that to the victims of Belsen and Sobibor.

    Generosity on the Camino

    Review of "The Way" with Martin Sheen

    I havent seen this film yet; it seems it's worth seeing. What is not so good is the commercial corruption that tags on. It seems that this guy Estevez has now linked up with a Travel/Adventure comany to offer guided tours on some camino , probably the Frances. I think all this cheapens the...

    Generosity on the Camino

    When I hear people say that the' Camino will provide', I point out that it is the people on the camino who provide; there's nothing spiritual about it. It's social provision.

    BED BUGS-How Not to Get Them!

    Hmmm...in all this discussion of bedbugs I realise that there could be some confusion. The Brits maybe refer to these insects as fleas, the US says bugs. They are not the same thing.
