Spain total solar eclipse, August 12, 2026: Are camino towns preparIng?
Figure out the angle of viewing; since it is near sunset it is probably to the southwest. The sun will be low in the sky so seek a spot with no hills, buildings or trees in the way. Maybe hike up a mountain.- Rick of Rick and Peg

WhatsApp, pay in advance?
Also, if you are suspicious and the URL looks good do not click the link. Type in the URL into a browser, don't do a copy and paste.

Bar Etiquette

We had backpacked in wilderness areas so walking/hiking wasn't an issue and if you are comfortable handling things there...- Rick of Rick and Peg

The one thing I should have done before I left for the Camino
Maybe have a neighbor start your car once a week. Thinking of once a week, have someone water your indoor plants. Shut off the water to your washing machine; you don't want a broken hose to pour water for a few weeks.- Rick of Rick and Peg
