    Toothpaste and deodorant - where to buy cheaper?

    My sis and I walked into O Porriño and couldn't find our hotel so we ducked into a farmacia for directions. I'll always remember how nice and clean and great smelling it was and the employees were so nice and helpful. I bought a tube of facial sunscreen which was a bit expensive but I loved it...

    Joseph Fiennes taking family on Camino

    Joseph and Ralph Fiennes mother, Jennifer Lash, wrote a wonderful book, On Pilgrimage, about her travels to several holy sites one being Santiago de Compostela. It's probably still in print. Get it if you can and read it. Very inspirational.

    Beef Jerky?

    My sister and I walked Camino Portuguese this year in June from Porto to SdeC. She packed jerky in her pack with no problem. And let me tell you, it was delicious and a nice treat on stretches where nothing was available. Thanks, Costco!

    Ladies...Yoga leggings or hiking pants?

    I wore 3/4 length stretchy poly/spandex pants on the CP this year in june and although they were very comfy, I was tanned and sunburned in the weirdest area. I still have the tan line! I won't ever wear that type of pant again. Long hiking pants for me next time.

    Telephone calls from Spain to Home?

    My husband & I walked last year mid May. we took our phones(T-Mobile Samsung 2's)just for emergencies. We weren't planning to phone home. T-Mobile hooked us up in our home town before leaving. We had no problems. Oh, wait. There was one day I walked on ahead of the hubs and got lost, doubling...

    My five minute, 'Gentle, In Bed Stretches'

    another move you might want to add, after doing all the ones you mention, would be to bring your knees up to your chest linking your arms under the knees then gently pull for a count of 15. rock side to side and again count to 15. total relaxation.

    Why are we walking the camino?

    My husband and I walked our Camino in May, from Ponferrada to Santiago. We had good times, bad times, very bad times. It was the hardest thing I have ever done. Walking, who'd a thunk it! A great feat and one I told myself I would not do again. It wasn't until we got back home and I had a chance...

    No, I forgot the star!

    Hi, B. My husband surprised me with this bracelet on our last night in Santiago. Its more like a Pandora with beads that slide on instead of hang. Jael Joyeria in Santiago does have a website in case you're interested. I feel the need for more beads! I hope you had a wonderful Camino. Here's...

    what was your most expensive "unscheduled" cost

    Thermal long sleeved shirts. We got in to Ponferrada and had no idea it was going to be that cold. Shame on us for not checking the Weather Channel. Almost blew them off but its a good thing we did not. Fitz Roy outfitted us. Good thing too because before we got to La Faba we knew we were in for...
