    The Camino will provide?

    I, too, can experience frustration at the use (abuse?) of the phrase "the Camino provides." On the one hand, it does - in so many ways, most of which have already been mentioned in all of these thoughtful replies. I love that about the Camino. But I walk expecting it to provide lessons and...

    National passport in card form

    I don't know if you will find this helpful, BUT... I made a color copy of the info page of my US passport and laminated it. My passport stayed safely secured, and I was able to use that laminated card to check in everywhere along the Camino and in the hotel in Madrid afterwards.

    The why of a 2nd, 3rd or 17th Camino

    Options: what to do after arriving in Santiago

    Muxia is delightful. Also, I see people suggesting A Coruña. If you head in that direction, Cambre is worth a stop, in my opinion.

    Getting from Madrid to Ferrol?

    Your plan is exactly what we settled on! I passed the training grounds day before yesterday and noticed the live fire flags were up! Made me want to stop and "play" but I don't think they'll let me. (Lol and I was so happy when I finally made Major and all the "officer with a map/compass" jokes...

    Getting from Madrid to Ferrol?

    Sorry if this has been addressed ad nauseum, but I couldn't find it. (However, I think I could now give someone directions to SJPdP from several major European cities!) My friend and I leave Belize the morning of 31 May to walk the Camino Inglés. The last leg of our international flights...
