Wonderful - have you booked in advance? I'm walking in April and am wondering if I have to book places in advance as I'd rather not.

We booked the first week in advance. We are staying mainly in hotels. Stayed in private albergue last night. We have been told by the pilgrims office in St. Jean that we would not have any problems with albergues. We also booked in Santiago because we will be there on Easter.

Altus BALI Sleeping bag liner
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

We are in Pamplona! It rained all day yesterday. Was sunny today. Not too many pilgrims on the path from Zubiri today. There was a wonderful gentleman from Pamplona on the path selling snacks and fruit. He said that he has been doing this for 8 years. What a blessing that was. Tomorrow is a rest day! Buen Camino!
 
We are in Los Arcos and can't find a stamp. The place we are staying doesn't have one. Went to the only store we could find open and bought groceries but she did not have a stamp. We are going to try the church tonight but I feel like it is our last shot. Any advice?

Albergue Casa de la Abuela or the regular municipal are not open? You might try Apartamentos Jurramendi?

We are staying at the Apartamentos Jurramend. Thanks, maybe we will try the albergue. I didn't know if you could get a stamp at the albergue if you aren't staying there.
 
2024 edition: The Brierley Camino Frances Guide
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Get a stamp at the restaurante/bar Mavi near the bus station at Carretera La Serna 2.

It is a simple place and filled at lunch with workers which is always a good sign. Servings are copious and a good value for money. They also rent rooms which can be handy in winter when many Los Arcos albergues are closed. Here is their web. https://pensionmavi.es/

Have you asked Cristina at Jurramendi if she has a stamp? I'm pretty sure she does? I would think the municipal would be happy to give you a stamp.
 
Eva at Jurramendi said that someone stole her stamp.
The church was closed. Looks like mass was last night and pilgrims blessing today at 1. But while we were figuring out about the church we found a bar that was open and was able to get our stamp
Thanks for all of your responses! Buen Camino!
