    Booking ahead?

    We're starting from Le Puy on Sept 1st (well, that's the plan!). Having not done the pre-booking accommodation routine before, how many days ahead do we need to book? Is it possible, or advisable, to 'just wing it' and not pre-book?

    Bullfight tickets in Sevilla

    Just wondering if any past pilgrims have been able to get tickets for a bullfight in Seville? I know it's controversial and I would most likely loathe the actual killing of the bull, however I think I'd like to experience the spectacle firsthand just once in my lifetime. Any advice as to how...

    Fly in from Australia on Monday night (15th) and plan to begin on Wed 17th. Jet lag usually isn't too bad going to Europe from Australia, so hope I'll be right for Wed. Love to hear from anyone with similar plans as I'm by myself.

    Quilting / fabric shops along the way?

    As a pretty keen quilter I was just wondering if there are any fabric stores along the Camino Frances? I know I won't be able to buy much, though I could always post a parcel home. I know it's not really in the spirit of the Camino, however I just thought I might be able to feed my addiction...
