    This is a great thread with invaluable info ( I especially enjoyed the reference to Mathew 20 (KUDOS)). Thank you to everyone. I know this had probably been said in one or more of the aforementioned replies, but every pilgrimage is an individual matter - whether its 100K or 1500K. I walked from...

    Primitivo - Any updates on the albergue situation?

    I plan to tackle the Camino Primitivo in September. I was wondering if anyone knows the albergue/refugio situation along this route. In the best of times the albergue availability was sparse.
