    Using Cards or Cash?

    Never use your card in a bank ATM if the bank is closed. If there is a problem and the ATM retains your card you cannot get it back until the bank opens.

    Lockers, Shipping Luggage & Early riser Peregrino

    Just in case anyone is misled, your 'All' should read 'Most' as Portugal is on the same time as the UK (as should be most of Spain). So those walking the Portuguese Camino lose an hour when crossing into Spain.

    I need your help. Calling pilgrims walking from Saint Jean Pied de Port to Santiago this year.

    I am assuming that you have taken a copy of the updated list of albergues on the Francés that Ivar hosts on this forum?

    New albergue in hornillos

    Your link doesn't work for me it shows 1.6.7.222 rather than a URL link.

    New albergue in hornillos

    A Casa Rural rather than an albergue. Depends on what you are looking for in the way of accommodation.

    Private Accommodation O'Cebreiro and Triacastella??

    I stayed at Casa David last October. They certainly had a reservation book which they checked when I arrived. Nice and clean, breakfast available, dinner is eaten further back up the street.

    Private rooms saved my Camino

    I've found the new (May 2013) guide "Hiking the Camino de Santiago" by Anna Dintaman & David Landis very useful as they provide details of both albergues and hostals for each of the stages along the CF.

    Albergue Granxa de Barreiros

    The camino for bikes passes by the gate, the direction 'da Serra' is 900 m further. If you telephone we will drive to collect you free of charge. Good road. But I notice that their web site says the albergue is closed when they have camps or schools visiting.

    closed albergue in Cardenuela

    I have added these albergues to the list of amendments for the pdf file http://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/resources/%E2%80%9Call%E2%80%9D-albergues-on-the-camino-frances-in-one-pdf.10/ . I expect this will be revised in the next week so any further amendments are welcome :cool:

    TSA news !!!!!

    I wouldn't make that assumption :cry: http://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/travel/passenger-rights/air-security/index_en.htm will give you an overview but unfortunately the assessment on what constitutes a weapon will be determined by the security on duty on the day at a particular airport...

    My Kit List

    That's the one that I used and would recommend. My Altus poncho caught me out like that the first time but I learnt to put it on on one side and then pass it behind me and over the pack before putting the other side on. Same with taking it off, just needs a bit of practice :D

    I will walk the Camino with “NO” money

    Re: Re: I will walk the Camino with “NO” money That is my view as well! Jim's approach is artificial as he is not really in need of any support and is simply opting to appear so. I would give him short shrift on the camino.

    Albergues without blankets

    There are no blankets in Roncevalles where I slept last night but it is quite warm so they are not necessary even with just a silk liner. Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

    Scheduling too much?

    Thanks for the tip. Now on my Kindle :D
