Hi
There's some great practical advice here on this camino. I have a couple of questions please for you seasoned contributors. The first is about timing my trip. I have to be in London on the 9 October but can take 3 weeks off either before or after. So do you recommend starting from Lisbon mid-September or mid-October?
I probably have a slight preference for the cooler climate and quietness of October, but I'm wondering in particular if key albergues/accommodation (where there are few other options) will be closed by then. Current plan is to follow the Brierley guide route from Lisbon, take the coast option on the first day out of Porto and then decide which way to go when I get to Vila do Conde.
thanks, tom
