Does anyone have any idea roughly how much it would cost to send a small case with wheels from Madrid to Ivar in Santiago? We will be carrying my father-in-law's gear, but he is going on to travel after the camino and will need more clothing for more formal occasions.

It depends on weight and size... but my guess around €20-€25.

Spanish post is pretty cheap (cf Aus and NZ). On many of my caminos I have posted one of those big green Spanish PO post boxes back to NZ (shopping/travel stuff post-camino) and never paid more than 50€ each. I also posted one to Ivar from Sevilla (pre VdlP), but can’t remember the exact cost. Possibly 20-€25 as Ivar says. I am sure you’ll love the VdlP ….I’m biassed, it’s my favourite.

Sounds like you'll get to meet Grandpa, Ivar. Left luggage at Madrid airport for three weeks would be 90 euros.
