  1. Aloha From Kauai

    Medication question

    I am bringing medication that falls into the protected class, I'm not sure if syringes would fall into this, but, I contacted the appropriate arm of the Spanish Government to declare. It was a multiple email conversation that I think I actually was having with two different people. In the end...

    Hot Water?

    Just ordered!
  3. Aloha From Kauai

    Hot Water?

    I have put a half dozen in my pack for emergencies and hope I can find a Spanish version when there. Thank you!
  4. Aloha From Kauai

    Hot Water?

    Thank you Joe Yes sadly I know; I'lldefinitelymiss the relief. Do you think most Albergues will have some way to heat water do you think?
  5. Aloha From Kauai

    Hot Water?

    Sorry for the odd question... but due to a long ago injury I've spent years sleeping with a heating pad; obviously that's not an option...would a hot water bottle or the therma heat patches be viable alternatives?
  6. Aloha From Kauai

    So this is what dehydration feels like

    I'm not sure if you are referring to what used to ne the Avon 3-Day (60 miles total) originally. I did the twice, the first only a few weeks after treatment and bald. Second day the route changed and instead of 20 miles it ended up being closer to 25. I kind of lost track of the day, and even...

    Prescription Requirements in Spain Compared to US and Mexico

    It is, nerve damage from cancer some years ago. It is unlikely I could do the camino without the nerve pain mitigation.

    Prescription Requirements in Spain Compared to US and Mexico

    Mahalo for the advice.
  9. Aloha From Kauai

    Prescription Requirements in Spain Compared to US and Mexico

    Thanks for bringing up a topic I hadn't thought of. I use a pain medication as needed and my doctor will refill before I leave, but as it is considered at least in the US, a controlled substance I wonder what problems I'm going to run into? Any advice from anyone? I'll bring a letter for sure...

  12. Aloha From Kauai

    To the Breast Cancer Survivors...

    Dearest Moorwalker, I woke early to your post and have been lying here for some time with it. Thank you for sharing your place in your journey with us. I remember the God-awful sickness and bone pain from the different chemos I cycled through, and the blisters from radiation, and the utter...

    To the Breast Cancer Survivors...

    If I think back on some of the shenanigans I did when I was young and really stupid, it is certainly a miracle.!
  14. Aloha From Kauai

    To the Breast Cancer Survivors...

    The only thing that gives me a hiccup about the word survivor, is the many that did not. I'm fine with it being an element of who I am, I joke that I look like the patchwork bunny, which I am also fine with. We all have our marks, inside or out, that I kind of think of pins in a map :) Thanks...

    To the Breast Cancer Survivors...

    I have not ruled out an Osprey totally but did find them a little claustrophobic. I have about six month left to test options out. Thanks for letting me know what worked for you; I'll have to rethink this again. All excellent advice. I do wish we had an REI!!!
  19. Aloha From Kauai

    To the Breast Cancer Survivors...

    :) I have actually, but also forgot I had, lol. I've seen some folks on YouTube who do a lot of filming use one and have been curious about them. I wonder how one navigates assents and decent without landing on one's bum :) Thanks for the great reminder! In some cases...ignorance is bliss! Stay...

    To the Breast Cancer Survivors...
