    It appears to be happening again.

    Just the clothes you stand up in, an umbrella and a bread roll.

    Any lodgings between Orisson and Roncevalles

    Don’t push the hip too far on the first day. It is a very hard walk uphill and down the last 3km is steep too.

    Is there currently a long stretch without refreshment or water?

    I would love to do that

    The use of blackmail in the internet.

    I’m sad for you. There are a minority of people who think an albergue is a posh hotel. An albergue as far as I can see is a part of a family. A Camino family. Please stay positive and continue to offer true pilgrims a sactuary.

    Not getting my training time in....

    Take your rucksack when you go shopping. Put your groceries in it. Get the feel of the weight. Don’t pack too much clothing. You can always buy the odd tee shirt...

    My first-time Camino: a review of the good, the bad, and the cows!

    I'd say just get in a few hills. Up and down.

    A few quick questions from a beginer

    Bars, restaurants and churches will all have a sello/stamp. You need two a day from Sarria. You will be fine AND it will be fun, just don’t push yourself too hard.

    On my own

    You will meet some great people. Priority is the same pace, or just meet up at the end of the day. I so called walked alone but there was always someone I passed or they overtook me.

    Backpack

    Try to get the weight off your hips. See if that helps. May be a shorter back pack?

    Backpack weight

    Is that with water bottles on board?

    Wasting water?

    The arches are necessary for when they have flash floods. I've seen one. Very scary. They don't happen often though.

    Wasting water?

    The old ladies get the water from the springs for drinking as it is so natural and yes sweet.

    David's refreshment stand before Astorga

    In 2010 David had long hair too.

    How Much Water are People Carrying and Drinking?

    Don't drink all your water at a fountain until you are sure it can be replenished...

    Warm welcome?

    Well said.

    Warm welcome?

    It's your Camino. Go and 'do' what ever you want. Change to walking and talking when ever you want. I walked with a friend and we split half way. I was so happy to do so. I met a few good friends that I'm still in touch with. Your husband might not understand you when you first come home. Head...

    Slaughter house on route concerns

    So true and look how clean everything was. Pigs are the cleanest animals. Bed in one corner, toilet in another.

    Slaughter house on route concerns

    Pigs are stunned by electrocution. They usually just give out a shocked squeak. No blazing guns etc

    Camino for Koreans

    I share a hotel room in Leon with a young Korean girl. We got on very well. We had the hotel to recover our different illnesses as the allergies only let us stay one night. I think her name was Hey Yong.
