    Restaurant Suggestions for Barcelona Please

    My flight from the U.S. via Dublin doesn't arrive until almost 10 pm (2200). By the time I get to my hotel I will have been traveling for over 24 hours and won't be good for much. I need suggestions for a restaurant or cafe near my hotel where I can get a light bite to eat before going to bed. I...

    Paris or Barcelona?

    I'm looking at some Aer Lingus flights for my September Camino and my options from Orlando are to fly into Paris or Barcelona. I pretty much know how to get from Paris to SJPP but haven't heard any discussion on how to get from Barcelona to SJPP. So my questions are: 1) which would you choose...

    Keen Sandals???

    I'm thinking of getting a pair of Keen sandals to bring on Camino with me next year as my 'evening shoes'. I can't wear Crocs and I want a pair if shoes I could, if necessary, walk in if for some reason my hiking footwear wasn't cutting it. So my questions are: 1) if you have Keens which style...

    Training for the Camino

    I don't see a topic for this anywhere but it is something near and maybe not so dear to us first time pilgrims and maybe some returning ones as well. :? I've just over 14 months until I start walking the actual Camino Frances in September 2014. Too soon to buy much in the way of equipment or...

    Do I really need a phone on the Camino? And other phone ?s

    This may have been asked before but do I really need a phone on the Camino? I bought a pre-paid phone from Tesco last year when I went to Ireland and used it maybe 2-3x. I kept in touch with people back home through Facebook on my iPad when I had wi-fi availability, which was most the time I...

    Which section or sections to do?

    I want to do the the Camino Frances next September (2013). While I would love to do the whole SJPdP to Santiago trek I will only have 16-17 days of actual trail time (19 if I give up Barcelona at the end of my trip). I do want to receive a Compostela so that means doing at least the Sarria to...

    Best way to get from Santiago to Barcelona?

    I want to spend a day or 2 in Barcelona before returning home. What is the best (cost and/or time) way to get from Santiago to Barcelona? Is there an over night train like I've read about to Madrid? I plan on flying into Madrid and out at Barcelona. I think I would want a couple days just to...

    Buffs, Camino Buffs specifically

    My knowledge of gear needed to walk the Camino de Santiago has grown by leaps and bounds over the last month. :roll: Thanks to my fellow/sister forum members I now not only know what a buff is, I know there is one especially designed by and for forum members. :lol...

    Making friends along the way?

    I am posting this question here because I don't know where else to put it. I will be walking some portion of the Camino Frances in the early autumn 2013. I will only have about 3 weeks vacation. Nowhere near enough time to walk the whole way from SJPP. So I will probably start somewhere west of...
