Aloha from Hawaii!
I am going to walk the Camino Frances this September and it will be my first time. I have some questions, hope you can help me with them.
1. What is the weather going to be like in September? And maybe first two weeks of October?
2. What do you recommend wearing for this time of year?
3. Will I need a sleeping bag? Some say a liner is sufficient, but I run pretty cold. Your opinion?
4. Are there places along the Camino to buy hiking gear at all? Shoes especially.
5. Is the Camino vegetarian friendly?
6. Are there any places to swim along the Camino? Swimming pools or lakes/rivers?I'm thinking if I should bring a bathing suit.
7. Do I need to book the albergues in advance? I was planning on just walking and seeing if anything is available when I get there.
Thanks guys. Any other tips would be greatly appreciated as well.
