    Safe to walk in Ponferrada at night?

    Wondering if any of this has changed in the last 3 years. I'll be arriving at the Ponferrada rail station about 7 pm in a couple of weeks. Never been there. Since I will have been sitting pretty much for the previous 2 days, I'm hoping to walk to the albergue, which I think will take me 20-30...

    Travel Company versus doing the Camino Frances alone

    I have had occasional luck with hotels.com Have you had problems with booking.com?

    Death of a German pilgrim on the Camino Frances

    And how are you doing, JAOliver, after seeing this sad sight?

    Alternative POV

    This is the kind of thing that makes my eyes narrow and shoot daggers. Who is this rude man who asked you such a thing? (that's rhetorical) As others have said, he has his own issues to work on. Worry not, LongRun64. There is a difference between selfishness and self care. I am pleased you had...

    Lost & Found Lost a credit card in Pamplona

    You seem quite calm about this--I am not sure I would be as cool. Are you thinking it fell out, was plucked out, or you simply left it on some counter? In any case, buenos suerte.

    LIVE from the Camino swollen painful feet

    I am not a math whiz, but isn't '20 years ago' twice what it should be?

    Municipal Albergues

    I will add I started checking gronze's albergue list and made plans based on what looked good and was marked as open when I would be passing through. Then I started getting n touch with some of the albergues directly, and found that they do not update on gronze their plans--meaning look on...

    I do not have a phone, let alone a smart phone. I do have faith and hope.
