    Ok, how many self respecting Peregrinos

    I never have, but would love to stay at one. May be one day when I've finished again, in Santiago! :) Hope so.

    How many women 55+ walk from SJPdP to Sant.

    You are being realistic. Many women the same age has done the same. Alone. I myself have not walked the Pyrenees though, as I started in Roncesvalles, but I've seen many doing so. Good Luck! Buen Camino. :)

    Meaning/division of different stages

    See what you mean, falcon, but what I meant was comparing it With "the living life". We all got a childhood, youth, we become Young adults, have children, and we get older. Stages of the lifes we' re living. We still got a life after finished the Camino. For sure.

    Give Hornillos a miss if you can

    I also came to Close doors at the Rural there in 2008. Thought I would walk on to Hontanas. It was too far for me though, so I spend the night at a very simple but oh so lovely albergue in San Bol. Thanks for the warning, for NeXT time when I shall start my walk from Burgos. Good idea to...

    Meaning/division of different stages

    At one of my pilgrimages when I arrived in Astorga I had a briefly meeting with a Spanish local, but also a pilgrim, who told me that the part I had just walked represented the present and the problems I might be having right now. Later I have heard about this divisions of the camino from...

    When I get back ...

    I look foward to: - see Roncesvalles and the stage walking from there to Pamplona (started in Puente la Reina last time) - see what I did not see walking into Puente la Reina, as I arrived by taxi last time - see the poem on the wall (after Navarrette) one more time - that the hen and the...

    Dangerous Traffic?

    I agree with jpflavin. Next time I go (cause there must be a next time ... :) ) I will take a bus into and out of Leon. Maybe from Mansilla de las Mulas to Hospital de Orbigo (alternatively to Villadangos del Paramo). Much walking next to roads there (but not dangerous excactly, except for...
