Hola !!!
In my final 10 days of the Norte here!!!!
But wondered if others knew or were interested that in Spain or atleast on the Camino , Shell gas stations will stamp your credential with a shell that says Camino de Santiago?
I saw a friends stamped and today crawled thru a field to a shell station across the highway:)

€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
That's interesting. I never saw a Shell station though, only Repsol or however it's spelled.
 
There may be some Shell store fronts remaining in Spain, but

Royal Dutch/Shell sells 338 petrol stations in Spain, other Spanish ops
Sep 8th, 2004 by John Donovan.
AFX Europe (Focus): Royal Dutch/Shell sells 338 petrol stations in Spain, other Spanish ops
Sep 08, 2004

AMSTERDAM (AFX) – Royal Dutch/Shell said it reached an agreement with Spanish oil company Disa Corporacion Petrolifera SA concerning the acquisition by Disa of 338 Shell petrol stations in Spain, as well as 5 pct of Shell’s Spanish gas trading business and distribution operations throughout the country.


A shell station locator on the internet does not list Spain as having any stations.

If Shell could make money commercializing the Camino, I suspect it would.;)

Well I got one yesterday on the stage before Tapia de C on Norte....and my. Belgium buddy got one at sometime before meeting me about ten days ago....
So no idea about the locator but I stood in a shell station yesterday with HUGE Shell signs everywhere clearly a Shell station with the logo I have known for decades :)

So two days ago as I was flying home from Santiago I took a taxi to the airport...there is a gas station right there as you approach the airport, I would say it touches the airport perimeter if not actually ON the airport grounds...it was a Shell station.
