    Thinking of doing Frances - Salvador - Primitvo

    This combo sounds very interesting to me also. I will be starting my 2nd Frances in May of 2017 and this may give me the added adventure I am looking for. How well marked is the Salvador and is there an English guide for this part of the combo. How long will it take to get to Santiago if I do...

    Those Dreary Urban Settings....

    Thanks rappahannock_rev for the quick answer. Change comes very slowly in most institutions that have been around for centuries. I am a RC and have attended services in the Anglican Church and have noticed the many similarities with the Catholic Church service.

    Those Dreary Urban Settings....

    Rappahannock_rev. I was courious about your title "Anglican Catholic Priest". What is the difference between that and. Roman Catholic Priest?

    Route Napolean versus Valcarlos

    In 2013 I walked the Napoleon route with a stop in Orrison. I had a amazing time and meet some life long friends in Orisson. Next May , 2017 I plan on doing the Valcarlos route with a stop in Valcarlos. I expect it will be just as amazing as the Napoleon route but different.

    worried about being a slow walker

    Don't worry about Brierley's designated stops. You can stop where ever you want to stop. I would plan my day the night before and then find an albergue that was close to that location. This is your walk not Brierley's . Have a great journey.

    The Meseta

    I walked the Meseta in May 2013. I loved it. The peace and quiet when walking was magical. The spring flowers were out and the multi shades of green fields was breath taking. I wanted to walk the WHOLE camino not just the fun bits but in fact the whole way was all the fun bits. Looking...

    Current Internet Cafes?

    I walked the CF in May- June 2013 and most albergues that advertised having internet I found that either the computers we not working or the connection was extremely slow. Best to carry your own smart phone as most bars and many private albergues had wifi.

    Walking with your spouse...dare to share...

    My wife and I talked about doing the Camino together back in 2011. A few weeks after the initial discussion she asked me if I would object to her walking it my herself. I was surprised by this request but supported her is this journey. I walk much faster than her and her reasons for walking...

    Reserving a bed

    My wife and I are thinking about walking the CF next year. We have both walked it separately before, my wife in 2012 and myself in 2013. I am a much faster walker than my wife. If I arrive at an albergue before my wife will they allow me to pay for both myself and my wife who would arrive an...

    Is carrying a guidebook worth the weight?

    Not sure what the big issue is. I am currently walking with a guide book and have Let numerous people use it (Brierley's) because they did not want to carry one because of the added wait. What is with this. Information make for correct decisions.

    Walk from Bayonne to St. Jean

    Thanks for all the information and advice. It would seem that the best option would be to stick to my original plan and get the early afternoon train to St. Jean. I have a room booked at the L'Esprit du Chemin for May 1st and I don't want to mess up that experience . Buen Camino all, Kennedy

    Walk from Bayonne to St. Jean

    Is it possible to walk from Bayonne to St. Jean in one day. Would the route be on paved roads or is there a trail one can use? I am arriving in Bayonne late on April 30th. and will spent the night there. I am planning on catching an early afternoon train to St. Jean but I was just wondering...

    Camino Passport stamps

    After reading the forum posts for the last 18 months I am still confused as to what is the correct answer. Do you need two stamps each day after you pass the 100km mark to Santiago ? I have seem many posts that say you need 2 stamps and many that say only one stamp. Which is correct.
