- SJPdP to Santinago April/May 2015
Hi,
Have four questions for this forum, all of a general nature:
1. Gloves. Will be walking the Camino in April and May, starting from SJPdP. Will I need gloves? What does the forum think if I were to bring bicycle gloves (that leave your fingers exposed)? They have the advantage of being relatively light weight and the disadvantage of not being as warm as other alternatives.
2. Buff. Seems to be a general agreement that buffs are a necessity for certain periods of the year. Saw a post two or three years old in regards to a special Camino buff. Someone was taking orders. Anyone have information where I could obtain one?
3. Beilari. Trying to make reservations for the first night at the Beilari in SJPdP. However, when I go to Beilari's website, I cannot find a link for reservations. Did I miss the window to make reservations until they re-open next year? I saw that Beilari closed about 24 October and will reopen for reservations on 15 February next year.
4. Credencial. I read in one my resources something to the effect that my credencial would have to be processed and that this procedure can take two to three months. I bought my credencial through Ivar. Is the guide book (or my recollection) incorrect? Or have I done all that I need to do until I get to SJPdP?
Thanks in advance for all your help. This forum is a great resource for planning my trip.
