    Levante Nuts and Bolts

    Hmmm. Must be me, but I never got bored. Thanks Laurie, (Peregrino 2000) for your comments. Loved it.

    Solo female on the camino de levante?

    Hi KLR and firstly you are quite correct on your assumptions. If you walk in the Spring you will meet a few people and the numbers are increasing, but it's still a very "quiet" camino compared to the Frances. You will also be walking across the La Mancha and round San Clemente, Las Pedronaros...

    San Clemente to Las Pedrones what happened to me?

    Amazing, how did that happen??. I looked at the map you posted and scratched my head!! The arrows were there and logically and correctly you followed them. That's what I would have done. The turn off to the left which Laurie and several others have mentioned is six or seven km from San...

    Planning Levante for 2015

    Hello again Alan, haha Almansa to Hig again! Yes, you turn right at the railway line and go over the bridge. I hope it wasn't too hot that day. To all concerned it is 42,5 km direct from Almansa to Hig., Best. Kev

    Are the alberques/refugios modern with a/c outlets

    Hi Kinks, there are ordinary European plug outlets in all the refugios, politdeportivos and hostals along the route, with the possible exception of Higueruela where you might have to go upstairs. Not so sure they are exactly by your bed every time, but they are there. Buen Camino

    Albergue in Avila breaks a record

    Hi Laurie, Great to see you again, even if it's only in print. Great to hear from you too George. About the boots. Lowa seems to work well in Spain, but I'm not sure whether you can get them in America. Have a look at their "Renegade" range, especially the ankle boots. Nice to see that the...

    guidebook suggestions

    Hi Alan, absolutely wonderful to hear you are out there on our (Laurie and me) Camino! Haha I had to laugh when I read about the way out of San Clemente. Yep, if I remember, there's one arrow just past the cement factory and then one half hidden where you turn left, one on the top of the...

    Summer along the Levante: Valencia-Toledo

    Hello Laurie,great to see you "in print" again. Hehe, on arrival in El Toboso I sat at the bar in what seemed to be the Plaza Mayor with my usual refreshment! The girl there mentioned the "Convento de las Trinitarias" and pointed down the road. It was about three hundred metres from the bar...

    Summer along the Levante: Valencia-Toledo

    Hello again LT. About the last 11 days. Have you made any concrete plans yet?The northern part is very different but, in places, very beautiful with dramatic landscapes. I wouldn't try it in the winter, but late autumn and Spring would be the best. Kev

    Summer along the Levante: Valencia-Toledo

    Hello again everyone and especially LT and Laurie. Thanks LT for the interesting and entertaining account. I love the way you and Laurie write, no pomposity or New Age, just the facts and a wry sense of humour. Sorry you got lost outside San Clemente!! Nearly missed the way there one...

    Starting from Valencia on 27 May 2014 - anyone else??

    Hello everyone, just to say we're back after nearly nine months in Australia and the Far East. Sounds like Filly is having a good time on my favorite Camino! LT, we had some correspondence in 2012 and I'm very glad to read that you will soon be on the road. If there are any questions then...

    English language Guide for the Levante. Hope to start april

    Hi Val, yes I found the guide very good and very accurate, especially the maps, although it is fairly heavy. It has been bound with metal hoops through the spine so you can remove pages every day. It thus becomes progressively lighter! It is also excellent for the history and background of...

    Great place to stay in Moixent

    I'm reading your blog Laurie. Fascinating reading and I do wish I was there. Xativa was having a rainstorm when I arrived so I never had a decent chance to see the castle. Congratulations! that was your last full day on the asphalt! Tomorrow you start on gravel on your way to the Font. and...

    Leaving from Valencia in early May

    Buen Camino Laurie. I'm sure it will go well. Don't forget the unnecessary detour before Xativa so you save seven km. I envy you the La Mancha at this time of year. Again, Buen Camino, Kevin

    Albacete adding waymarks and refuge

    Very good news and thanks for the interesting translation!! I loved the bit about pilgrims "building up on the way French". No, but the gist is very serious and my respect and gratitude goes to the tireless "Amigos" out there marking and always trying to improve the way. Laurie, the marking...

    Albergue in El Toboso?

    Yepp I can confirm with Andy that there is a convent in El Toboso. You get your own (bit cell like) room with a beautiful crucifix over the bed. They also have hand-embroidered counterpanes! I think there was a 10 euro donation. The standard was very high with your own bathroom. You are...
