    Salutations all! I’m starting my first CF next Monday (and I can barely sleep in anticipation), arriving in SJPdP on Sunday via the 3pm train. I’m certain most food shops close early on Sunday, but anyone know of a secret open Mercado? Was hoping to get some basic food to snack on while...

    Burgos - I need a poncho ....

    So, my €8 poncho from Decathlon has proven itself to be utter sh*** in the rain, esp when windy. Having tight genes 😅, I thought it would be fine. Clearly not. So, I'm currently in an albergue just outside Burgos and will pass through about 10.00am tomorrow. I'd like a 'better' poncho, maybe...

    Dentist in Burgos

    I know I can Google, but I am also interested to hear if anyone has a specific recommendation for a good dentist in Burgos. I am a few days out from there and seem to be developing a toothache so if it doesn’t resolve itself I will probably try to get it checked while I am there. Thanks

    Finding Camino Patches

    I’ve been to a store 2-3 times in the past several years that has every sew on patch imaginable. Over 100 types with routes, distances and years. It’s a small store, still inside the city center less than a km from the cathedral. Does anyone know the store? It is not any of the ones within 100M...
