We started with 11 degrees in Roncesvalles and 14 days later we arrived at 2 pm at 37 degrees. So best would be in my opinion the onion-look. Zipper trousers, different layers a convertible buff. Most helpful was my Euro Schirm. I used on hard rainy days and it was lifesaving in the hot sun.
We walked there today. Follow the road oft the left side. There are yellow signs and shells. Look close and if you have time walk to the bar at the Hospital where the bus stopps and ask the friendly owner there. Hope to meet you in my favorite place -the meseta.
We stopped there last year and had the same wonderful experience as you describe. It is a MUSST to rest there or stay over night. They didn`t had a sello at that time and painted a sello instead of stamping.
A very lovely family and a great place to eat and stay.
Thank you for this explanation. I remember that I understood most if the spanish people spoke slowly with me. But when we entered Galicia I had the feeling to be in another foreign country. It was a bit strange for me.
Till yesterday they walked with jackets all day long. It seems to be much...
It brings good memory back. Then man changes during the walk. Sometimes he walk with and sometimes he walk without shoes. I am not sure about the hat. The woman never walks without shoes and most times she uses the buff in different ways.
Oh this is Galician language. I didn`t know that but it...
Since some days the spanish TV is sending the walk of two pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago. From Roncesvalles to Santiago de Compostela.
It starts in the morning 9 a.m. European time and ends at 6 p.m. European time.
Every single step can be seen. Right now they are heading towards Boadillo...

In Villar de Mazarife we stood in lovely Albergue San Antonio de Padua. Just a wonderful stay. It has a beautiful garden and is highly recommend by us.
I think it was in a thread where pilgrims discussed how to display the special pieces they took back from the Camino. I hope you can understand what I want to say (sorry I am German).
Dear pilgrims, I need your help please. I know there is a thread about what to do with shirt to do which can not be worn any more. I remeber an idea to make a sheet out of one of the loved Camino shirts.
Mine has a lot of little holes at the where you close the belt of the backpack.
I really...
I love the meseta. Never ever would skip it. Instead of this I would take a bus into and out of the big cities like Burgos. or Leon.
If you need to save more days I would suggest to take the bus from Leon to Astorga. But just, if it is absolutely necessary.
Oh no. Another shoe problem. A serious one.
Thomas you are in Burgos right now and where do you want to go. What time scale do you have for your camino?
