I stayed at the Hostal Alvarez last night in Leon. We are shipping my wife's bag ahead with Jacotrans with great success.
Yesterday I asked the owner of Alvarez to advise Jacotrans that a bag would be shipped to Villavante.
We arrived at casa Molino Galochas and we're told the bag had not arrived.
Leo had contacted Jacotrans too late for the pickup.
This behaviour is dispicable and should be censured.
The owner of Molino Galochas travelled on his own account to Leon to pickup the bag.
You cannot be serious! "Despicable" means "Vile, morally contemptible."Leo had contacted Jacotrans too late for the pickup.

Camino angel, to the max!The owner of Molino Galochas travelled on his own account to Leon to pickup the bag.
Like others, I see this as a an over-reaction. My wife and I met a father and daughter in Najera at the bus station who had returned there because the bag they had sent forward had not been delivered, and they had returned by bus a little earlier to fetch it. They were waiting for the return bus to take them back to Santo Domingo. They were treating this as part of their Camino experience - perhaps you should too.The owner of Molino Galochas travelled on his own account to Leon to pickup the bag.
When I read this I seriously thought I must be reading that other thread - the tongue-in-cheek one https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/dreadful-walk-awful-people.40245/. I'm still willing to give the OP the benefit of the doubt.This behaviour is dispicable and should be censured.

Yes ! I hope you did....how generous and kind of him to do this !!!BTW I hope you at least reimbursed the out of pocket expenses of whoever collected the pack.
Bad behavior? ha ha....
I thought this was going to be a thread about drunken young pilgrims and their sophomoric hijinks or something. Not about a shipped bag being late to its destination. Heck, it costs what, like 7 euros to ship a bag? Still a pretty good deal despite the occasional late arrival. That's why I always say never carry anything on the Camino you aren't willing to lose.
I'm wondering if this is a joke of a posting?Leo had contacted Jacotrans too late for the pickup.

I think it is. I think the OP has put one over on us. "Dispicable and should be censured."I'm wondering if this is a joke of a posting?
And here was me figuring to shout that Leo a beer.he guy at Molino Galochas sounds like a fine person. Should I get there, I'll buy him a beer for you.
