    windbreaker or altus poncho?

    Yes, windbreaker, poncho and fleece for September/Octuber. You'll need all three before your camino is over. I walked this summer in June and needed all three, I walked in August 2010 and needed all three. Never trust the weather in northern Spain. Josefine

    To cross Pyrenees or not?? Experienced walker?

    In my opinion you don't have to be very fit to do it in one day, I wasn't and did it without any problems. The first part up to Orisson is the hardest and you shouldn't start out walking too fast. I am a slow walker and it took me over 9 hours to get to Roncesvalles but I arrived well before...

    Modern History of the Camino

    For those of you who read in Spanish, Fernando Lalanda has written a book about his first Camino in 1976, called "Sois peregrinos?" His was only 19 and did the walk with his brother. And there were no yellow arrows.....it's nice book, interesting. Josefine

    Very true Sillydoll, Christmas is approaching and in Sweden we still see flowers in the gardens, and also the ocasionally strawberry. As for the Camino, you can be freezing during August as well, depending on exactly where you are, when you get those heay rains and winds ....be prepared! Josefine

    Annie!! Are you serious or just making a joke? Because if this is true I will ALWAYS take the upper bunk.
