jl said:When I walked from Le Puy in 2007 and Troyes in 2009 I didn't use a mobile phone (I don't own one, and don't even know how to use them!) I booked gites a day or so ahead through the tourist office on the Le Puy path, and just went to the Marie (where the key was usually picked up) on the Vezelay path without booking once. You say you are reluctanly thinking you will have to take one - if you feel that way why not leave it at home? (it is only more weight). For maintaining contact at home I would just use the internet when I could - the tourist offices usually had a computer (sometimes expensive, but they would often only charge the 15 min rate even though I had been on it for as long as an hour), and the biblioteque's, if your strike the right opening hours, will give free access to visitors.
I never had problems with the albergues on the del Norte either. Cheers, Janet
