Thank you all for your invaluable comments and suggestions!!!! I was surprised to hear many suggesting not to take waterproof jacket and trousers ... I thought those are essential esp if it rains!!

Yes I have removed one pair and only taking one..I do have a lighter weight sleeping bag but was worried that it might be cold in the albergue...
Hi all
I am all packed ready to leave for Bordeaux tomorrow .. my sack is about 10kg and I weigh about 60kg, so it's pretty heavy!
My sleeping bag and waterproof trousers and coat weighed a total of 5kg!!
Is it really necc to take a sleeping bag as I will be staying in albergues?
Feedback's...
Hi all...I am getting ready to go in a couple of weeks and my sack isn't too heavy!! However, do I need to take a small hair dryer or would the municipal albergues provide it?
