    My own socks test

    Your choices are just what I’ve used in all my Caminos without a blister. My two sucks are about the thickness of normal socks. I’m also old and it took many trots find the right combo. All my Caminos have been done with some style of Brooks shies in wide. You’ll love the Camino.

    One (water) bottle to rule them all?

    I like these. Just refill the bottles. They stay in place and that can also be used for phone or glasses.

    I hope you survived the Motel 6 in Indio. Other than that hoped you enjoyed the US.

    Rip off Restaurant

    Have you priced an Egg McMuffin, coffee and oj at McDonalds lately? Probably $10 each. At least the coffees and Oj would taste good. Why do people just think everything should be cheaper on the Camino.

    Bathroom stops on the camino for female Peregrinas

    I agree with you. And who would take care of these facilities? The same Pilgrims who can’t pick up their own garbage?

    Sagrada Familia Church Will Be Completed in 2026

    When I was there in 2014 they were saying they wanted to finish in 2026 as that was the 100th anniversary of Gaudi’s death. Hope they get it done. It was beautiful then.

    Tui beginning

    I walked it and met many people along the way. I walk slow so most people passed me but when they stopped along the way many times I would see them again. A lot of people seem to remember the slow person they passed and maybe had a short conversation with. You’ll meet many others.

    Where is the "drinking pilgrim" statue?

    And after you have a drink of water you come to that green monster. I just stood and stared at that thing trying to figure out why it was like that.

    Trainline and registering!

    Where does this info go? I can’t even find that any of my info is in the app? I’m a little technically challenged.

    Experiences with Epiretinal Membrane Surgery?

    The surgery definitely helps. I know when the problem gets worse as the vision in that eye starts changing on an hourly basis. It shows up in the scans they do and they watch it for awhile to see if it gets worse or stabilizes and then go from there. If it gets worse I will gladly have it fixed...

    Experiences with Epiretinal Membrane Surgery?

    #1 I’ve had it twice. My problem started after cataract surgery. One eye was a miracle and the other a nightmare Things happen. #2 & 3 yes it was and I would do it again.
