About a week ago, I ordered my Pilgrim Credential and Forum Badge from Ivar's store. Today, there was that beautiful envelope from Santiago--right there in my mailbox in Canby, Oregon. How quickly it arrived, and how glad I felt!

Seriously, I used to have a passport filled with pages and pages of overseas stamps, and looking at this credential, I am excited to think of how it will become worn, passing back and forth between my hand and so many others. The colorful stamps I will receive! The extra stamps in a journal! Oh, the places I will go....

Great job getting my stuff posted quickly, Ivar. And a question: how do all of you put your badges on your packs?? super glue? or?

I sewed mine on my pack. Ivar has a plastic cover for the passport in the store.

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.

Deb, your Dr. Seuss reference made me smile. That book has pride of place on my bookcase.
 
I sewed my forum badge on with my sewing machine. My Americans on the Camino badge I could only sew half on with a sewing machine and finished up the other half by hand. I just couldn't get the sewing machine in to the space available in the pack pocket. Either sewing option works well.

How long does it take for the badge to arrive? PayPal took the 7.50 from my account on 19th of March, I ordered I think the 16th. I'm in Ireland I thought I'd have it by now, I've time yet before I travel but I'm thinking it must be gone astray?
 
Cailin, you may want to ask Ivar. I would send him a little note with a copy of the paypal proof, and perhaps see if he can let you know what could be up. I'm not sure about Spain to Ireland, but it came from Spain to the USA in a really quick time period--just a week or so. I know you will have it soon!
 
Good idea, think I might do that now. Thank you, post should be quicker within Europe than to another continent I'd imagine
Buen Camino
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
I just sewed mine on too. It wasn't a pretty job, but they are still on my pack, except for the one patch I left at the Elvis Bar.
 
My badge arrived I want to start walking NOW!! Counting down the days
