    slow paced Itinerary-camino frances

    I have had several slow ones that I have not actually written down. I use GRONZE as Spanish camino web site to pick the places I will stay. The map of the stages on GRONZE is very helpful as it showed the different towns and the mileage between them. Also what accommodations are available at...

    To the person who wanted to inspire love . . . you didn't!

    These tags were there 2 years ago and it only get worse. It’s not just young people. I saw a 40’ish old man with a magic marker writing on a road sign. I think what I said to him was, “what an idiot” and asked him where he lived so I could come and write my name on his house. He just walked...

    Walking the Valcarlos route

    Anyone one stayed in one of the two hotels in Valcarlos? I found an e-mail for one of them but never get a response. Are there other options for overnight in Valcarlos besides the albergue?

    2 more weeks...last random questions (hopefully)

    You might check out the iphone app, Wise Pilgrim. Don't know if it works with android, but it's been improved and look like it could replace your guide book.

    My new Am Express card has a chip, but it's a chip and signature card, not a chip and pin.

    From California to Camino! Starting June 1st, 2015 :)

    Welcome Josie. I'm sure you'll get everything all sorted out and have a great time. There should be an REI somewhere near you and the folks there can help you choose a backpack that will fit you properly. Osprey is one brand that has different sizes of bladders and I am sure others. I'm...

    First Timer, Early April 2015!

    Hi, Len, looks like we may be starting on the same day, 8 April. I'll be arriving from Madrid via Pamplona arriving in the morning. Starting to walk mid morning, I hope, and staying the first night at Orisson, weather permitting. Bad weather I'll be taking the Valcarlos route. Perhaps we'll...

    planning continues

    I booked Orisson for April 9th and waited over a week for a response from my inquiry, then several more days before they emailed the invoice for PayPal. I sent my request before Christmas, so I'm sure that was the reason for the delay.
