    This is totally against Camino spirit but . . .

    Wow a lot of feeling there.

    This is totally against Camino spirit but . . .

    I am getting a little tired of the 5am club. They wake me up with their torches and noise at 5am, then go to bed with doors closed and lights off at 8pm, so I feel uncomfortable going to and from my stuff, chilling on my bunk. And worst of all I have to do my final next day prep with the lights...

    Muni Albergue Villava

    I liked the idea of missing the Brierley stages, as it is far quieter. But it's quiet to the extreme today. I'm in the muni in Villava and I'm the only one. It has wifi, a kitchen, lockers. But at the moment I could do with a little company. I'd like to find a happy medium as I continue my...

    Albergue Irugoienea : Espinal

    Hi, Walked on from Roncevalles instead of staying there. About 6.6 km after I reached Espinal and found a great little Albergue. It is €10 for the bed plus €10.50 for optional evening meal and €3 for breakfast. Free wifi, vending machines and very quiet. To find it you turn left on the Main...

    Hi, shoot them an email. I forget the address but if you google them you should easily find it. They they send a PayPal request around €33 to confirm. Safe journey. Lloyd

    Starting from SJPDP on the 29th!

    I'm setting out the 29th but stopping at Orrison that night. I'm getting the train from Bayonne so should be setting out from SJPDP late morning.

    Need to stop reading this Forum

    It seems that a little reflection on why I'm making this journey, and also the fact that I'm a really chilled guy, has calmed my mind and my excitement has returned in floods. Some things I have been thinking about: If I get wound up by people, be the change I want to see in them. Dissolve...

    Need to stop reading this Forum

    I leave next Tuesday and I've decided to stop reading the forum now as its mostly just worrying me. Every day I'm reading how there are no beds. Every day I'm reading that you can't walk your own Camino because you need to plan for the people who get up at 5am or only walk 15km, and are taking...

    Getting the Ring to Santiago!

    Getting a diamond ring to Santiago Yeah, I contacted the hotel about an hour ago and they have responded saying its fine to send it to them. So I'll get my dad to send it out about a week before I'm due to arrive. Removes the stress! Hopefully ill check in and it'll be waiting in the safe...

    Getting the Ring to Santiago!

    Hey there, I start my camino August 29th SJPDP. My girlfriend is meeting me in Santiago for a romantic week at the end, during which I will be proposing! I want to do it with the actual ring, but this adds a little problem - getting the ring to SJPDP. Options I can see : 1 Carry it with me...

    cheap guesthouse in biarritz

    Hey, I'm in the same boat. I arrive 9:30. Gonna head to Bayonne, staying at the Montecarlo, then grabbing the train the next morning to St Jean. The Hotel is really close to the train station.

    Can't decide between the AC Palacio and NH Obradraio

    Ha, yeah. I see £100 saved on a room is £100 more to spend on her.
  16. Poshlloyd

    Can't decide between the AC Palacio and NH Obradraio

    Yeah that's where I'm leaning at the moment. Although I've now found I can get the NH for about £100 cheaper! This may sway me!

    Can't decide between the AC Palacio and NH Obradraio

    Hi, My girlfriend/ hopefully fiancé (after proposing in Santiago) is going to fly out to Santiago for the end of my Camino so we can spend a week together there. Id like a nice hotel for 6 days at the end of September and as a compromise between price and style I have narrowed my choices down...

    Leather cowboy hat?

    Thanks, I've just checked out the Barmah folding hats, they look pretty good, do the job in hand, and fold away into a bag!

    Avoiding Brierley stages?

    I see your point. I'm thinking that I'll aim to stay anywhere during most of the Camino, then actively avoid Brierley stages after Sarria!

    Leather cowboy hat?

    Mr Hat, love the shell on the side of your hat!
