    Your Favorite Food on the Primitivo?

    What a great question. I must admit the food along the Camino was not all that great. There were a couple of high lights that stand out in my mind as well as my wife. The tapas in Pamplona, or is it Iruna. The real deal from what I can determine. On ever corner and in every bar. Outstanding. The...

    September 2014 Peregrinos

    My wife and I completed our first leg of the Camino. We started in SJPP on the 16th of September and made it to Leon. Returned home via the Queen Mary 2. As my wife puts it the Camino is camping and there was no better way to go home in her mind. We met some very interesting people along the...

    Class of 2014

    My wife and I just got back today from our short time on the Camino. We stated in SJPP and ended in Leon. I must admit prior to departing for a year I have been on this site searching and reading all I could about the Camino. I was so excited to go and couldn't control my feelings. Now I must...

    Now for the important stuff--corkscrew?

    I agree with you Susan, one of the first things I packed was my Swiss Army knife with a corkscrew. I don't leave home without it. I also know that wine on the Camino makes everything better. Buen Camino

    "Why Walking Helps Us Think"

    Great insight, I have a tendency to do everything in a hurry. I must keep reminding myself that this is not a race, take my time enjoy were I am at that moment and just enjoy my surroundings. Live in the present not the future of we must get to the next Alberque so we don't miss out on a bed...

    What are the Do's and Don'ts of Albergue Etiquette?

    What does one do with his or her backpack as far as safety? Is there lockers that they can be stored in while out for dinner or just exploring the town? I know keep valuables with you at all times but my clothing and gear is also my valuable. What do you all recommend?

    "Why Walking Helps Us Think"

    September 2014 Peregrinos

    You are right. We are all called in different ways. I am blessed that my wife is going to be with me as like you I don't know why I am doing this but some thing inside me is telling I better before it is too late. I will look for you along the trail but you will be far ahead of us. In the...

    It's September and in just a few days time we will be heading out for the experience of a life time. I am so excited to start and test myself physically.

    Backpack, vitamins, and gastronomy questions!

    I had the same thought regarding supplements, I just stocked up on, energy boost and strength endurance. I don't know where you live the brand I have been taking is Hammer. Good quality product that are designed for sports minded people. I would also suggest a sports drink of some kind to...
