    Waking up in the night

    I had some upper bunks, but I msinly had lower bunks. Don't worry too much on that score. I am not a through the night sleeper at home, but on the camino I slept very well even with a bathroom visit. Being really tired helped I think. Buen camino.

    No explanation needed

    OK, I must admit jealousy ... 9 times! Probably not a good emotion on the Feast of St. James. Seriously, I am so happy when people get to do a camino! It was a real blessing for my husband and for me.

    Santiago Nativity - made in Galicia (updated with ARTIST info)

    SJPDP via Santander/Bilbao

    We left SdC via bus for Santander where we relaxed for a few days. We then took the ferry to Plymouth, UK and it was a good way to process our camino. Nice way to travel too.

    Trouble with finding beds in early September to October 2018

    Rosemaryk1, my husband and I walked the Camino Frances to Santiago from Aug. 28 to Oct. 9 in 2015 and never had a problem getting an albergue. I believe you'll be fine. Enjoy! Buen camino!

    Conflicted about going, plane leaves Friday?

    Copado, GO, GO, GO!!! You will make your own pace. DO NOT try to keep anyone else's pace! We nearly always started 6:30am-ish and stopped between 1-2. Only had a top bunk once. BTW that is usually an early enough arrival time to pick any bed. And you can always take a bus if you need to do...

    Let's get rid of plastic on the Camino

    Pack it in, pack it out ... simple to do really. I hope people would also consider picking up their own poop and toilet paper ... that is also a problem. Hey everyone, if you can arrange to go on a camino you can figure out how to take care of it. Seriously!

    Could O Cebreiro hostal be full

    We left SJPP late August 2 yrs ago. Arrived O'Cebreiro September 26 and it was full mid-afternoon. We stayed at FRADE Tlf. 982 367 104 which is a stone house/private home in the middle of town. Just so very nice! A highlight stop for us in a beautiful spot. Bien camino

    Torn, 200km done, 1OO ish to go Blisters not healing

    When I had planter fasciitis on the CF I took a taxi or a bus to meet my hubby each day. It wasn't the camino I planned on, but it was OK. I was so happy for my hubby to keep walking. And you might find that much rest from walking does the trick.

    Mass on the Camino Frances

    We found pilgrim masses in so many places were in the evening and we located them once we arrived in the afternoons. The camino usually passes nearby.

    10 extra days in Spain -- what to do?

    I'd go to Burgos and the cathedral there is awesome. The stainglass windows are remarkable. I also liked Astorga a great deal and you can visit a number of very beautiful smaller churches there. Leon is worth a visit too. I extended my stays in each of these several days, and attended masses...

    How hard are these stages?

    We stayed at FRADE in O'Cebreiro and it was so nice. It was a beautiful stone building, it felt like a private home and was a perfect stop for us.

    Hi I am 70 years old and I'm going to attempt my first Camino in April 2017

    I was 68 and my hubby 70 when we did the CF in fall 2015. And my observation is that everyone has given great answers to your questions and other personal insights that will help you prepare. I developed plantar faciitis after Burgos. I'd never had it before. That was a real bummer! So I'd...
