    Very scared of terrorism

    As a person with exposure to, and experience with, the world of both firefighting and policing your comments ring very true. "Avoid tunnel vision" . . . (unless you are actually walking through one, then look at the light at the end of the tunnel, which funnily enough can then again be...

    Very scared of terrorism

    Wow that includes a couple of stop overs to get to Madrid . . . Was it an amazing deal ? I fly out on April 1 to Madrid via Amsterdam, from Vancouver. The Amsterdam-Madrid ticket I purchased after booking the intercontinental one, total cost (return) about $1300 CAD. Buen Camino !

    Crocs or sandals?

    Crocks all the way : they weigh like nothing and feel great after a long day on the Camino and are great for the shower or a midnight trip to the loo !
