  1. Camino Yogini

    Albergue Burgos March 22 2016

    If you are thinking of spraying with permethrin, and you are a pet owner, you should know it is highly toxic to cats and fish. http://icatcare.org/permethrin/owner-info http://pmep.cce.cornell.edu/profiles/extoxnet/metiram-propoxur/permethrin-ext.html

    French pilgrim arrested for graffiti on Camino mojones

    At first, I got it mixed up with 'cajones'. Oh, my command (or lack thereof) of the Spanish language will get me in trouble yet!

    Ooohh! Neat way to organize next day's walking clothes

    Kiwi-family Rachael -- wow, you're good! My pack isn't quite that minimalist. What do you wear when your walking clothes are drying? Could they be packed this way?

    Ooohh! Neat way to organize next day's walking clothes

    Sorry, folks. Try this link instead. It's life hack #42 and is a series of photos rather than the video but you'll get the idea. http://www.epicdash.com/the-46-most-brilliant-life-hacks-every-human-being-needs-to-make-life-easier/ Fingers crossed.

    Ooohh! Neat way to organize next day's walking clothes

    Shoot! Possibly because it's someone's Facebook video. I'll try to figure a way around it. Thanks for telling me.

    Ooohh! Neat way to organize next day's walking clothes

    This is for a child's beach outfit but it might work for a summer pilgrim, especially useful if s/he leaves before most pilgrims wake and wants to keep the rustling to a minimum. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10152169583640952&id=612460951 I love simple solutions! Ultreia!

    Tarte de Santiago

    T2andreo, You don't have to schlep into every two-bit tourist shop in old Santiago. As StuartM rightly pointed out, the Cruz de Santiago templates are in a housewares shop and I only remember seeing two such shops (I first saw the templates in the window when the shop was closed).

    Tarte de Santiago

    The shop that StuartM mentions was still there this past November. They had the set of St James Crosses in MendiWalker's link. Definitely easier (and less lopsided!) than the paper stencils I used to cut out!

    Happy Birthday Ivar!

    Happy belated birthday, Ivar. Much thanks to you from us pilgrims -- this forum is invaluable and so is your parcel storage. Here's that photo of us from when I picked up my little parcel this past fall. ¡Muchas gracias y feliz cumpleaños! Helen

    Camino Francés again or del Norte?

    Hola peregrinos, Some will have seen my update on another thread. I haven't been on the forum these past few weeks as I was trying to get my "daily bread" work done before taking almost seven weeks off. But here's what I decided. I will walk del Norte, then join Primitivo just before Oviedo...

    Saucy David! Well, it SHOULD exist! Thanks for the giggle, and the reminder.

    Instant answers/gratification

    Having gone on Camino only once so far, I am neither a virgin nor a veteran. And being a good librarian who is open and likes to just "go for it" but wanting to be prepared as well, I do (usually) search for an answer first. :) But like the quote by Neil Gaiman, “Google can bring you back...

    Camino Francés again or del Norte?

    Wow. Thanks for all the great comments and advice. Very helpful, all of you. Tom, Aubrey, Alan, Evan, Una -- you've convinced me that, despite the "touristy" elements, del Norte would still be a powerful, spiritual experience. So, I could, with an easy heart, choose to walk it. But Alan, you...

    Camino Francés again or del Norte?

    Thanks to everyone for your answers. Thanks, Margaret, for these threads, especially the second one. I hadn't read them before. Such wonderfully articulate answers! Thanks also for the Pascal quote. I haven't heard it in a while and it so perfectly describes my Camino! Thanks, LTfit. That was...

    Camino Francés again or del Norte?

    Hi all, I am blessed because I will be able to go on Camino again this fall. Last year at this time I was walking the Camino Francés. My question is about what route to take this time. I will start around September 26, to finish around November 6. I would prefer to go a couple of weeks earlier...

    Christmas (and other mid-winter festival) gift suggestions

    Hola, forum friends! Being a last minute Christmas shopper, the timing is about right for me to think of this. We've all met fellow travelers who have become very special to us. At this time of year, thoughts turn to Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, etc. Any suggestions for gifts? None of us want...

    Great You Tube or Vimeo Camino Moments

    I just discovered this series of videos produced by Xacobeo Galicia of various Camino routes through Galicia. Made me even more homesick for the Camino. http://www.youtube.com/user/XacobeoVideo?feature=watch and these, also from Xacobeo Galicia http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaijtC88qFA...
