Hi Javs , I will be a couple of days in front of you, fly into Santander on the Wednesday 10th April, then bus to Oviedo, so probably start walking on the 11th or 12th April.
Couple of questions for you or anyone else, I only needed a silk liner on the Frances last August, but think I may need a light sleeping for this camino, are you carrying a sleeping bag ?

I took the liberty of adding your start date to the calendar. I know many people don’t use the calendar, but it is easy and may put you in touch with others walking. We have cleaned it up a bit to include only start dates, so it should make it easier to see if others are leaving on the same day as you. (And of course, if you want me to take it down, just send me a message).

This is silly but I forget how to add / edit a calendar entry. Presently I am on an iPhone.

Thank,

Tom

Here are Ivar’s instructions. I will pull up the thread for more people to see. Now that the instructions make it clearer, maybe more people will use it.

We plan to start on the 13th from Oviedo. We walk with silk liner only. Coming from a dry, warm country, we are not well equipped for rain, snow and cold...We look forward to the Camino and will handle the weather, this is part of the experience! Buen Camino

Hi , 60 Morris, we will maybe meet, depending on how far we walk each day, I had hoped to walk with only a silk liner, but I don't like the cold, either ( even though I am from a cold country! , I have some African blood!),I had read some where here that not all the albergues have blankets, and even in August on the Frances last year I looked for a blanket occasionally.

Hi Bill.
From my experience, in April you should use a ligth sleeping bag. The one i use has only 680gr. I bought it in Decathlon.
