    Ordering beer in Spain

    Usually Cana, grande, then they ask English and out comes an even bigger glass. If you need nourishment add a Magnum. If it hot have a Radler, beer plus Lemon, on draft.

    Weirdest/Strangest item someone has taken on the Camino

    I have never felt the need to take any luxury item on a backpacking trip. But someone thinks that a Digeridoo and inline skates are useful on the Camino Frances.

    Walking out from Ponferrada, a bit too much road, a bit too much sun. A quiet peaceful walk, ignoring the traffic, no peregrinos around, glad to be back on the Camino. A short stop at a local bar, for some quiet contemplation. A cold beer and some Olives help the mood, I was enjoying myself. CF...

    I too arrived in Astorga with a deteriorating knee, CF June 2016. After a somewhat rainy 10 miles, I had decided that a hotel was called for.

    It may seem heretical to some, but I love local cafe/bars, where there are no peregrinos/as. The gentle nod on entry, then the conversation resumes. the world is put to rights, local problems are resolved, or last night's TV discussed, and of course, the compulsory dog. CF May 2019 Villafranca...
