    Last spot to catch a taxi after Orrison back to SJPP

    Just pre-book with Express Bourrricot as MassNative suggests. Next day drop-off will easily allow you to make it 15 kms to Roncesvalles for lunch, rest, and restroom times. Then on to Burguette. If you chose to go to mass at Roncesvalles as recommended by MsPath, take a taxi to and from and get...

    Cell Phone Usage

    Trecile, except for Viber, I did the same thing last May/June. I have the magenta program with T-Mobile. No problems whatsoever! The phone didn't have to be unlocked. It serves many countries without further/extra charges.

    If I don't stop in Zubiri, What do you recommend?

Owner is a chef and will provide great meal for evening and breakfast. For fee, of course. Great showers. Away from the madding crowd. The Camino family...

    Obtain the QR-CODE before you arrive in Santiago.

    I would think "liberales" means self employed or unemployed. "Marinos" should be Merchant Marine. Seafarer. Liberales. From what I read I understand it as self employed/unemployed. Marinos. Merchant Marine. Seafarers.

    Concerned

    Hi! I am in the same boat as you to a point. Next week, first Camino. SJPDP, Roncesvalles, Zubiri and Pamplona pre-booked due to Holy Year, post Covid restrictions, and reading of this Forum. I will decide at Roncesvalles whether to continue doing this or to wing it. My guess is that it is best...

    Camino patches for backpack

    First thought is to have them sewn on. This prevents them from falling off if glued/ironed on due to weathering and drying of the application substance. Next thought would be to attach to pack using velcro. Patch backside with pack outside. I used this method with Scout shirts. This allowed me...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Vaccine Passport Requirements in Spain traveling from the US

    Thanks for the clarification. That's the way I see it also. I don't know or haven't heard of anyone else getting a 4th injection. In essence, a 2nd booster. And I live in a Hotspot in the US for Covid.
