    Sarria - no room at the inn, at any inn, after 3:30pm

    I was in Sarria on June 24th. No problems there for me or my friends. I am glad I did my Camino in June because the only place when albergue(s) were full was in O Cebreiro and I think there were places for piligrims in the church (I am not sure were they slept) It is possible that it happened...

    info about cebreiro

    http://caminodesantiago.consumer.es/alb ... o-cebreiro There is no e-mail address but there is a telephone number. I remember that place very well because I was there about four weeks ago. They are renovating the place and now they have only 2 toalets. You can image what happens in the morning...

    Book in SJPP

    http://www.espritduchemin.org/ I was there one night in May (2008) and liked the place very much. I did the reservation by e-mail. All peregrinos had a dinner together. I got a good start for my Camino.

    Hi BobM! I have been two days in Santiago de Compostela. I have enjoyed the Camino very much and I got many new friends which I hopefully will meet again someday. Three of us are planning to do the "El Camino del Norte" next year. The Camino was quite easy for me. I think the reason is that I...

    Hello! I am in Estella right now and everything has gone very well so far. It rained in the first few days and the paths has been a little bit slippery. Today we have had a sunny day but it isn´t too hot. All the pilgrims has been great and we have had lots of fun. I think that there has been...

    The weather has been cold and rainy in Spain and it's going to be like that next weekend on the Pyrenees. The weather maps show that there are snowing in some parts of Northern Spain. I am considering should I'll take more warming clothes with me.

    BobM: I'll start my Camino with 11,4 backpack. :wink: I have alternative things for some equipment which are lighter but those are not so good than gears I'll take with me.

    How often there are villages or towns on the Camino? I mean is it easy to get food from supermarket or little shops at mornings? Did you usually buy little snack for the mornings? Did you have any problems to get food at any time? Sorry, that I made so many questions. I have "The Camino Francés...

    BobM you have almost same kind of thoughts than I do. When it has rained a lot during on a cycling-trip abroad or I have sweated a lot after I had climbed on a hill on a hiking-trip, those times I have thought few times that "I think there is a easier way to live my life, but would I enjoy my...

    Yeah, I am a quite a experienced walker. I have hiked many times in the Finnish Lapland. There I have carried a backpack which have been almost 25 kilos. I have hiked 20 kilometres/day with that pack. Though, condititions will be different in Spain, much warmer and rain could be heavier too. I...

    I am in 10 kilos (water isn't included) now, but there are few things I'll change tomorrow when I'll pack again. Gladly I found a sleeping bag from a supermarket today. It is a summer bag and its comfort figure is +10 and it's only 0,6 kilo. BobM: I noticed from the photo that you wore shoes...

    I had a dream and it was 8 kg. I tried to pack my things to my backpack and I think with my stuff 8 kg is not going to happen.

    I won't take spare shoelaces (a joke, I know) but I like to take a sleeping bag and that means already 3.1 kg with backpack. I am still not sure how much warming clothes I'll need there. I know that in June it is warm in Spain, but on the other hand there are those mountain parts too where it...

    I have trained quiet hard. Though, I am always in a good shape. I have done hiking for years so I know that there always be clutter in my pack. I have read too much lately about the Camino and I am a bit confused what should I'll take with me and should I buy some new stuff to replace older and...

    The best map for Camino Frances.

    Thanks. The CJS bookshop has "The Camino Francés, 2008". I think I'll order it. I have read much about the Camino from internet, so I don't know do I need "The Practical Guide for Pilgrims". I'll start my Camino in the end of May. My biggest problem seems to be that I have many good boots and...

    The best map for Camino Frances.

    I would like to know which is the best map for Camino Frances? I'll start from St Jean Pied de port and I hope that I'll manage to Santiago de Compostela by walking. I would like to have a map which isn't heavy but still has enough information to be on the path. Gracias.
