    Albergue passport

    Many kilometers in Portugal as well. But sadly, not to Santiago.

    Can anyone give me any advice on doing the Camino Frances with a two-year old.

    Where's the wonderful WOW button?! Good for them!

    Pain in rabanal and moving forward!

    I walked the road all the way down into Molinaseca and was damn glad I did after the stories I heard from those that walked on the loose trail. At warmer and busier times of year for traffic though, it might be a nightmare on the road as there was little-to-no allowance for right-of-way for a...

    60th birthday on Camino where to stay

    If you spend it in Leon, don't miss time to sit and soak up the amazing energy of Basilica San Isidoro, close to the cathedral. I stopped in Leon for 2 weeks to heal a number of injuries. But the most healing thing I did almost every day was go back to San Isidoro. The most remarkable things...

    Not getting it

    Perhaps you will get your nerves back and start the thread if you title it, "It might be better to walk alone." Then you are free to discuss the pros and cons and not feel like you're giving advice, but rather food for thought.

    Walking in Mid September- October

    500 miles for wild fuscias in October! A rallying call to get me out of bed every morning! Thank you.

    Flowers in October? Really?

    Walking in Mid September- October

    I too, am planning mid-September to late October or early November. I turn 60 on November 2 and have vowed to make some profound changes in my life, so the thinning crowds are better for introspection. I am not a fan of the rain or the wind, but will survive what comes my way. I'm hoping to do...

    a warning and a Request

    Wow. Great lesson there about self care. Especially men are too often taught from boyhood to suck it up and not pander to physical needs. I taught basic water fitness classes to a lot of people in the 60-90 yr old range for 14 yrs in a therapy pool. There were so rarely men who came out to look...

    Bad Albergues

    Yeah, I remember those days in hostels. The sense of responsibility/giving back was great, but here it is less realistic to ask of many who arrive already exhausted from their day, physically. If prices have to go up a bit to hire more help, that's understandable.

    Bad Albergues

    It's sooo sad that so many are assaulting the messenger. One big healing hug to you, Len. The comments implying that he or anyone might expect 5 star hotel quality lodgings are fabricated from thin air. Len merely reported facts, relative to other better kept albergues along the Way. He...

    Service Dog

    Groovy. I will take you up on meeting for coffee, Diggs....as long as I get to meet Arthur! Is the phone number on your website a 7/365 way to catch you or is it separate from your cell/home line?

    Service Dog

    WHERE is the silly LOVE button? I will pet enough dogs on my Camino to satiate not only my own needs, but redeem all who walk and avoid them. Promise! :) Bring 'em on, if they are well mannered, of course.

    Service Dog

    How wonderful to hear!

    Service Dog

    Hi Diggs, This really piqued my interest. I am a diehard dog person who works with dogs in Lyons, just over an hour from you in Colorado. How did you resolve this? Did you walk the Camino? Without the ADA it's hard to travel many places with a service dog, from what I hear. Paws crossed that...
