    Are you a hiker or a walker?

    To me, it seems like your response is a case of way overthinking the topic. Trecile, in my opinion, was simply offering a light and even fun topic for discussion. I doubt that the topic could or would result in discrmination any more than would a discussion about whether one uses the term...

    Travel Insurance

    I second all of the above. Do not skimp on your travel insurance selection! My wife and I visited Switzerland recently. Two days before our scheduled return, she came down with a serious case of pneumonia. She had to be transported to the hospital by ambulance where she was hospitalized for...

    Post a picture of your "shadow".

    We seldom had sunshine and this one was an accidential shot that I decided to keep. It is the only shadow photo I could find. I guess there was a purpose for keeping it....this thread. :cool:

    Medical Insurance

    Another endorsement for Squaremouth. It's nice to be able to pick and choose which options you want and then pick the most reasonably priced company among those that can include your requested options. I fortunately have never had to file a claim, however.

    Give us a Gift!!

    Granted we only did Sarria to Santiago and then Lires to Fisterre, but I thought the food was great. We did not do albuerges, so maybe that was the difference. Prawns, Galician soup, Paella, pulpo, no complaints here. Yes the beer choices were quite limited until we found a great craft beer...

    Great britain I'm another blue-eyed lefty. According to the Ancestry DNA test, I am 0f 88% Great Britain heritage. A chunk of that has to be Scottish as my Surname has its own tartan.

    Bicyclists on the Camino - Please Give a Warning

    I am a cyclist myself who recently finished my walking Camino. I was amazed at the lack of warnings provided by cyclists on the Camino. Most announced Buen Camino as they were passing. which was a bit late. Unfortunately, in the US, there are a lot of "elite' cyclists (at least in their own...

    Uh-oh

    Some of you may be aware that yesterday, the EU parliament recommended by a non-binding show of hands that the EU commission require Americans to have visas to enter any EU country. This is basically in retaliation to the US currently requiring citizens of five EU countries to have visas to...

    Warnings about your (national) passport

    Another thought. If you keep your passport in a bank safe deposit box, don't wait until the last minute or even last day to retrieve it. A number of bank lobbies are no longer open on Saturdays and you would be in major trouble with a Saturday or Sunday flight. Also, as I was waiting to have...
