    Gear report from our first 11 days

    My wife and I just returned from our first 11 days on the Camino Francés, and I've posted a summary on our blog of what gear worked and what didn't. There are as many opinions on what to take with you as there are people you can ask, but maybe this will help someone in their planning...

    Checking a backpack as luggage - found a great solution

    My pack is too large to carry on the plane, so I'll most likely be forced to check it.

    iPhone GPS apps in offline mode?

    I'm looking for an iPhone app that can show my GPS position on a map of the area, and calculate the distance from me to a particular location I've selected -- all while offline. Both the built-in Maps app and the Google Maps app can do most of that, but not the distance calculation without...
