    Doing it her way.

    Descending El Perdon by deni posted Sep 14, 2016 at 7:26 AMWe met this elderly American lady on the Camino descending the Perdon outside Pamplona on the 5th of July. She was doing it her way at about 10k a day. She planned to arrive in Santiago today, 14th of September. I hope she made it.

    Live from El Tesin in Rabanal del Camino. The best tortilla since Navarra.

    It definitely was an improvement over what was available for the past few days. So far the tortilla in Villacázar was the best this side of Viana. Hopefully it's a sign of things to come. Apart from the taste, the location and particularly the company made it special.

    Worrying Trend

    I am currently drowning my sorrows with a gorgeous Patxaran con hielo (my other Camino ritual) as the sun sets over the Meseta. It lifts my heart John to know that I'm not the only one bearing this burden, that my concerns have struck a chord. I also look forward to the forthcoming empanadas...

    The morcilla's great but it's more of an evening bite. I find the tortilla is a good option for second breakfast and doesn't repeat on me. Also, the morcilla tends to provoke mad dreams.

    Worrying Trend

    Having spent most of the last two weeks walking along the Camino Frances I have noticed a disturbing trend. The further west we go the quality of tortilla seems to be decreasing. Right through Navarra the tortilla was absolutely fantastic. In the province of Rioja while still good the tortilla...

    Camino Franglés

    I have no preference of whether I travel by train or bus. It’s more about finding the most user friendly travel options that fit and then making a decision. I eventually found the Lugo Ferrol route on the Arriva website; not the easiest to use as you need to search from the exact stop to find...

    Thanks all for the info. There's a bit more thinking to be done.

    Camino Franglés

    Thanks, I've been looking at these for the past few days. I came across references to Arriva "Lines 8" Lugo - Ferrol online but there don't seem to be any details on their website. Do you know if the route still exists?

    Camino Franglés

    I have absolutely no problem with a minimum distance but covering multiples of it by combining two historical routes and having that ignored seems a bit severe. Seven hundred km on foot is hardly circumventing the rules.

    Camino Franglés

    Where's their sense of generosity? :( A Coruña is a lot easier to get to than Ferrol as transport connections seem much more frequent. I haven't been able to find a bus connection to Ferrol and there only seems to be one train a day.

    Camino Franglés

    Hi all, I’m planning to walk the Camino Frances as far as Sarria next month and then intend to take public transport to A Coruña in order to follow the Camino Inglés. I’m curious to know if this is likely to cause any Compostela difficulties in Santiago as the last 100km will be partly by train...
