I'm planning to do the Camino next week 13th May starting in Ponferrada (2013)
Hola!
I'll be walking the Camino next week starting from Ponferrada and was wondering if anyone else will be will walking at that time?
Also if anyone has any last minute preparations tips?

Thanks,

Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
Hola Grace,
Welcome to the forum.
Next week, not long to go, hopefully got your packing all sorted, and kept the pack weight to a minimum. I,m Sure you will meet up with lot's of fellow pilgrims along the way, so don't worry about starting out on your own.
Remember to get two stamps per day in your credential from Sarria to SDC (last 100Klm).
Buen Camino.

My husband and I should be in or around Pontferrado about 19th May so we will look out for you.
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).

Make sure you haven't over-packed nor forgotten anything essential. If you post your packing list here, people will be very happy to have a look at it and give you some tips. Apart of this:

!Buen Camino, Peregrina!

Gracias everyone for your comments - I appreciate them.
Yes, I guess its just a matter of starting out alone and meeting people along the way...thats part of the journey.

I'm all packed now and I'll be starting in Ponferrada on Wednesday!!

If we don't happen to cross paths along our journeys, Buen Camino everyone:).
