    When do most pilgrims feel like quitting the Camino de Santiago?

    It wasn't really when I wanted to quit......the worst thing for me was getting shin splints and the thought that my Camino was finished.

    Bored walking

    I would say that every km is different, and with each new village, town and city you reach, they all have something different. The pilgrims you meet and sometimes walk with add to each and every day. Give it a go for the full 30/35 days Trust me you will not be bored at all. Buen Camino

    Death of Felisa’s daughter, María

    I remember Maria when we stopped on a boiling hot day asking for cold drinks. She simply pointed and said 'Green door'. On the other side of the Green door was 2 fridges containing ice cold drinks. Thank you Maria, god bless you. RIP

    SJPDP to Orisson?

    I would say enjoy St Jean over night, then if you've booked Orisson, which you will probably need to do, set off about 10am and enjoy the 1st days walking. 3-4 hours.

    Finding medical help in ENGLISH in Burgos

    Last year I attended a private hospital in Burgos purely because it was the nearest. It's located further than the Cathedral and the square and on for about another 1km.

    Casa Navarro in O Cebreiro or Linar do Rei in Linares?

    I stayed in Linares, beautiful Albergue but no where to eat as the only restaurant was closed. If I had the choice again I'd stay in O'Cebriero. Buen Camino

    Transfer Puente la Reina to SJPDP

    You can always get bus from Pamplona to Bayonne (2 hours) then train to St Jean (1.25 hours). Taxi or bus from Puente la Reine to Pamplona takes half an hour.

    Biarritz, arriving at 22:45, accomodation

    I suggest you book the Campanile at the Airport as the bus to the train station in Bayonne leaves every 20 minutes the next morning just round the corner. Go on their website or booking.com. Buen Camino
