    The culture has changed...sadly

    LIVE from the Camino Last Day Walking Blues

    GO down to the Cathedral at about 10 pm and directly opposite beneath the portico you may hear the costumed Spanish troubadours ensemble sing and play. Great group and always a great concert and fun. They play there very often. You could well meet some of your walking friends there among the...

    What an Outlandish Suggestion !

    Why not tackle the source of the problem. Get some good medical advice and treatment on the snoring cause or at least try to have it alleviated. It should be of benefit long term. Likewise with frequent bathroom visits. Medical science and medicines have moved on a bit. Good luck

    Villafranca Manifesto: Camino Future?

    Very, very well said. I often feel like writing similar when the forum reduce to a Nike v Raebok debate. What welcoming and patient locals look after us there. It is to me a reflection the the "way" of life itself.
