Oh and a heads up on accommodation so far
Day 1 municipal albergue in Vila Cha highly recommended. 9 out of 10.

Day 2 Sea Soul Esposende - more expensive than your typical albergue but absolutely wonderful. Loads of space and really comfortable with great facilities. Definite 10 out of 10.

And if you ever wondered where all the British Red phone boxes went, well....20230905_133115.jpg
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

€149,-

I have seen red telephone boxes in many countries during my travels. The particular one pictured might be based on a UK design, but I certainly wouldn't have thought of a red phone box as uniquely British.

Now a blue police box is another matter. We know they appear throughout time and space.

We are ariving in Porto on May 27th. We want to forward a suitcase to Santiago directly so we have other clothes post our Camino. Could any one please recommend luggage services that will ship...
How low must tides be to prevent boat crossings from caminha to A Guarda?
