    Best Camino App for Camino Francés

    Hello! I couldn’t find a category that seemed to fit this topic, so I am posting to this forum. Sorry if it’s the wrong forum. The last time I walked the CF, I had an app that guided me wonderfully along the Camino. It showed my position on the map of the CF and once saved me from making a...

    No SIM Card

    Yes, just days they said. Of course, my Spanish is deplorable.

    No SIM Card

    I saw the Mi Pais SIM, but they said no international calling. Very strange. Maybe it’s a Burgos thing. I’ll try again in Leon. I am using Skype & that works fine, so I guess I’ll just be happy with that.

    No SIM Card

    Hello! I just left Burgos where I went to Vodafone, Orange, and Moviestar looking for a SIM card do I could call to the US, but none of them had one. Last year, in Pamplona, I had no problem. Does anyone know where I can find a SIM card with International calling? I am 5 days from León...

    Alcatel USA

    Vodafone or Orange

    My granddaughter tells me that I can Facetime other iPhone users and that texts between iPhones go internationally when you are in WiFi. I also have Skype which allows me to call landlines in other countries, so I think I'm fine until I get to Pamplona. I can live three days without a darn...

    Vodafone or Orange

    Yes, I did that, but I didn't fly Vodafone. Mostly a shop called Tech & Fly. I think I can wait until I get to Pamplona. There's a Vodafone office there.

    Vodafone or Orange

    Thanks for your help! Do you know if the mobile store is close to T-4. I am catching my bus to Pamplona outside t-4 and want to be sure I have enough time to get the SIM card installed.

    Vodafone or Orange

    Is the store far from T-4. I am so paranoid! I have 2 hours and 45 minutes before my Alsa bus leaves for Pamplona, but I'm afraid I will get lost finding the phone store.

    Vodafone or Orange

    Hello everyone! Me again. Sorry for all the questions. Is there a Vodafone or Orange vendor at the Madrid airport. If so, can you give directions? I will, of course, download a map of MAD. I know there is a Vodafone in Pamplona, but how about SJPDP? And if I activate my new SIM card or...

    Cell Phones

    What's the weather like in November and December? We're planning on going in April and are afraid it might be too cold (as we don't want to carry heavy clothing). Are there some albergues open in November and December? I thought they all closed mid October. Thanks for any info.

    Cell Phones

    Funny or tragic story which will underscore Scruffy1's post: I was just East of Logrono, checking my position with a Camino App, when I fell down an embankment, rolled over my pack and broke a couple of ribs. I finished the CF, but was in excruciating pain for, well, it still hurts a a little...

    September/October

    My wife and I are planning to walk from Pamplona in September or October and were wondering what the temperatures might be. I have looked up average temps and they seem to say that it can get down to the 20's (I use fahrenheit), which is pretty cold for me. Do we need to bring down jackets...
