Articles like this one appear ad naseam recently, as if the wheel or hot water had not been invented yet! :twisted:

hmmm, I liked it. Thought the writing style was quite fresh and, not having walked in peak season, I learnt a few things. Each to their own!

But read this one from 1986! http://www.nytimes.com/1986/06/15/travel/where-roland-blew-his-horn.html

"The route is still active, although much diminished (400 pilgrims last year, according to Father Maximo). Some religious travelers from other European countries than France make the journey across the pass and even certain Spaniards prefer to start the trip from Roncesvalles. Many travel by car but some still make Spain's most famous pilgrimage afoot."

No matter when a story is or was published, there's a chance it will be someone's introduction to the Camino. Or the author's voice will strike a different chord for someone.

Remember your first time?

If nauseated, turn the page.
