    Passport or certification or both?

    Hi Judith...was that in Victoria? I have the document you refer to as well, and while it is very nice and I get the question..I am not sure either. You would think that nothing is more official than the government, but I am not sure this applies to this, as I understood there were restrictions...

    Double check when you call your banks to inform of travel...

    Alsa booking...my experience on a PC (CDN) was that it wanted my card to be registered with "Verified by Visa/Mastercard". I just closed the popup that wanted that extra password but it turns out they were serious in wanting what they called "the digital signature issued by your bank." In the...

    Your camino calling what step are you on

    I was standing firmly on "I WILL, " looked at the chaos and all the things to be done here, tripped and landed on "HOW?" After a day or two of panic, I am working on one item at a time. I will still be flying on April 10. If some things do not get done......well....hopefully I prioritized...

    Easter Monday

    Adjusting as I go, it seems that Easter Monday might not be as big an issue, as that it appears that Wednesday, April 23 is a holiday in that area. That day I had thought I would return to Burgos by bus and start walking the next day. That might not work. Flexibility and information are good...

    Easter Monday

    Thanks. I fiddled and translated my question and sent it off via their website. Will see what happens. Guess I might have tried that first, huh? Good to be aware of holidays and be prepared. I have the previous week in Burgos so if I need to stay an extra night there, it could be done. Or...

    Easter Monday

    Is Easter Monday a holiday? It is, for the most part, here--so am unsure. Looking at the bus from Burgos to Santa Domingo de Silos.....no weekend service or on "festivos." Should I plan on service that day or not. Thoughts? Lynda

    Gathering; Places of Rest

    Encouraging. Thanks. As a first timer I feel focused on the travelling, sleeping, surviving. I am so very glad to see these places of lightness and remember why I want to go in the first place. Weigh and wait.

    Is there a real reason for a bed race???

    Just rereading this, trying not to worry....how to phone, who takes reservations, when, will they expect calls, understand my name, will I understand them, is it true I need to walk 20 km in Galicia. On and on, first timer obsessions. From beds to socks, on and on. If it is possible, I devote...

    GPS vs. phone vs. camera

    I like my Fitbit. It is very flexible about where you can put it.....I usually just keep it in a pocket. Seems reasonably accurate. I understand that some newer phones have accelerometers too, so they can act as pedometers, but don't take my word on that.

    Hotel Booking button?

    Thanks Ivar...it makes sense to me and you! Thanks for the explanation....I do find it easy and useful, and good to know it helps and I was not losing my mind. I am looking to stay a week plus in Burgos (Santa Semana and travel recovery) before I actually start. I will probably book tomorrow...

    Hotel Booking button?

    I am usually on my iPad and there was a button? I think to hotel booking....maybe separate site, not sure. It seemed to be easy to use, but now on the PC I can't find it.....help?

    wifi along the Camino?

    I am finding a heavy feeling of obligation to communicate with some people at home. For myself, I would prefer to just say, "See ya in 2 months.." My sense is that I am not going to be one to write or blog for general consumption. I don't particularly want to share all the stuff of my Camino...

    Hair

    I am loving this discussion too. I have a horrible time with my hair at home let alone in less easy conditions. Fine and curly and if it is more than short I either look like a mad woman or spend ages on it. My plan is to go short short on departure, it will go through a nicer phase and by...
