May I use last year's credential this year?

Last november i walked SJPP - Fromista (350 km). I would like to walk the rest of the camino this year. Do I need a new credential, or can I just continue on the old one?

Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
In 2009 I walked the del Norte, carrying the credential issued by the Confraternity of St James. It had several pages empty of stamps when I finished, so when I started the Via de la Plata last year I used that credential until it was full. I completed my walk using a credential issued by the amigos del camino Via de la Plata, which I picked up in Seville when I attended a meeting of the local amigos.

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.
Lots of people have to walk the Camino over a number of years because they cannot take all their annual holiday in one go to walk SJPP to SdC. I discovered that as long ago as 1998. The issuers of sellos are well aware of this.

In both 2007 and 2008 I walked Logrono to Burgos.

I am walking Burgos to León this March and while I am definately taking one of my passports I might take both just to see the wardens etc. faces. :D

All will be well unless they insist I pay for two bunks. :shock:
