Altus in Oporto?

[sanet]

I'm setting out from Oporto around 22 April - my first Camino.

Does anyone know whether one can buy an Altus poncho in Oporto?
What are shop hours in Oporto likely to be over a weekend?
Last not least - anyone else going to be on that route during that period?

Thanks!

Mary and I will be departing Porto April 29 on our way to Santiago. Hopefully we will see you on the Camino. We wanted the Altus poncho badly, could not learn of one in Porto, so we ordered one from Barrabees and received it within a few days. We live in the USA and were impressed with their quickness. Bon Camino!

Hi, thanks for the Altus info. I live in South Africa where the post can be dodgy so I'm somewhat wary of ordering one :| but may end up taking the chance.
I'll be taking it very easy! so there's a good chance that you'll catch up with me somewhere.
Bon Camino!

Hi,

I'm starting the camino on 25th of April from Porto. See you on the way..
I hope you got Altus poncho you wanted. If not, I think on Sunday you will have problems to buy one.

Bon camino!
