    Has anyone tried the new Dansko line of hiking and walking shoes?

    September weather

    Hello fellow pilgrims! I was on this forum and all prepared to walk the Camino in 2020. Well, you know what happened. Now, 4 years later I am signed up to come on a pilgrimage in September. So, 4 years older, not in as good a shape as before but hope to improve on that in the coming months...

    Poll Which Camino are you planning next?

    My plans for last spring obviously postponed til fall. That did not happen. Another opportunity for this spring also postponed. Will have to see about flight restrictions and so forth if I ever get to go international again or at least for a long time.

    Camino Frances Video: 33 Days in 16 Minutes | September 2019

    Just watched this video again myself. Oh, I so wanted to go! Had the trip paid for and collected supplies over many months and would have gone in May but then we know what happened. I do not know now if I will be able to go. Not for some time at least. I will not go as long as there are mask...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Do you still feel like walking?

    Both the flu and the common cold cannot be controlled and this will not be either. And rushed vaccines could have terrible consequences.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Do you still feel like walking?

    Just cancelled my postponed Camino. I had so wanted to make the walk but the world is so uncertain at this time. Chaos all over the place. And international travel could be iffy if even allowed. I do not want to be stranded in Spain! I paid a big penalty for cancelling but now perhaps I can...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Do you still feel like walking?

    I am scheduled for October but my enthusiasm has faded. I do not want to fly the Atlantic wearing a mask or walk with a face covering and all that. Will see what things look like about August but I may cancel. Had been gathering supplies since last year for my walk which should have been in...

    I am not in favor of a global one world effort. Power in the hands of a very few and that is always dangerous to have those elites making decisions for the rest of us. No thanks.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Plans later in the Year? It is "Who knows?" Time

    Well, the group that put together my Camino has rescheduled for October. This pandemic will hit a peak and decline as viruses do. The question is how soon things can come back somewhat to 'normal'. But the normal we have known is gone; there will be a new normal.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD COVID-19: Corona virus discussion (Round 4)

    Earliest you can see the meseta in bloom?

    I am booked for early May: I hope this beauty is in bloom and also hope that the current pandemic is passed.

    HELP! (Shoe advice) April 2020

    I am bringing both! I have Merrell Moabs and then very light weight trail runners that I can just attach to my pack. I have had feet issues and anticipate needing to trade off.

    Cancelation Insurance due to Coronavirus

    My trip tour just cancelled a trip to Italy because of the virus so if by May, it is an issue in Spain I would expect them to cancel and either postpone or refund. I have travel insurance through them so am not overly concerned.

    Class of 2020

    I think of it as the "cheater" way but am starting in Sarria in early May and staying in hotels and have pre-paid. With my awful sleep habits the thought of a large cramped alburgue would be a nightmare. So we shall see how this goes and, who know, perhaps I will go for a longer walk in the...

    Poncho

    I like the idea of the Velcro and will see about it for my poncho. Thanks!
