    The good, the bad & the ugly. Part 2

    Not snarking, but if you are talking about Hostal Alberguería Del Camino, I had a completely different experience at lunch there on October 1 this year. Every course (Salmorejo, Stewed Lamb, and Lemon Cream) was excellent, service was friendly and unrushed. ¡Buen Camino!

    The waterbottle mystery

    A bartender in Portomarin told us that it was to prevent dogs from urinating (different word was used) on the building. We didn't really drill into the details and now I regret that. ¡Buen Camino!

    Missing Orujo shots was a shocking oversight on my part! But actually, I like it better when they just put a large unlabeled bottle on the table. Thanks for 1 Second Every Day App pointer. Looking into it. Nuns playing guitars... ¡Buen Camino!

    Hi TJ, Welcome to the Camino Forum! I hope Karla answers you also, but you might find Stephen Jones from Dublin's videos interesting. He started in late February this year and finished in early April. ¡Buen Camino!

    Opening Resources

    Hi Gbags, Also, once it downloads, tap the screen and select "Open in iBooks" this will put a local copy in the iBooks library. This is a convenient way to store any PDF file (and you can turn almost any type of text file into a PDF). ¡Buen Camino!
