    Martyduc reacted to John Sikora's post in the thread Medication woes with Like Like.
    I'm getting ready to pack for my next Camino (two months on the del Norte). That means that I have to worry about taking (counting vitamins, medicines, and supplies) a total of about 900 pills along with 9 sensors for my Dexcom 7. Can't do it...

    Martyduc reacted to Bradypus's post in the thread Dual Pilgrimage with Like Like.
    The dual pilgrim registration in Santiago is done through the tourist office in Rua do Vilar - not the pilgrim office. The procedure is to first go to the pilgrim office for your Compostela. Then take the Compostela and evidence of completing a...

    Martyduc reacted to David with new Kit!'s post in the thread Jubilee Year of Hope 2025 with Like Like.
    Also, “your” Camino does not have to end in SdC. Maybe consider doing a “stage” or perhaps one of the shorter caminos that of themselves don’t end in SdC. For example San Salvador or Lebaniego. No need to avoid in 2025, I might have to adapt...

    Martyduc reacted to TravellingMan22's post in the thread Be careful with phones. with Like Like.
    Sorry to hear that, it’s a horrible thing. Scary thing for me is that our phones are becoming more and more important. I am at the point now where my wallet is almost irrelevant, as I rarely carry cash and my cards are on my phone, and it can’t...

    Hello all! Just a little follow up to my post a few months back on whether it was too soon to second Camino a year after the first. The answer was a resounding no! I got a cheap flight and found myself with no reason not to go to France and try...

    Just as a reference for future Salvador pilgrims. Our experience in Poladura (one week earlier) was completely different. Hot water, lots of blankets, electricity working fine, super well equipped kitchen and absolutely lovely hospitality. It’s...

    Martyduc reacted to truenorthpilgrm's post in the thread Re: Current Lunch Prices with Like Like.
    I think it's safe to say most people understand the concept of preparation. It was the manner in which those "essential points" were dispensed.

    And if you plan to visit the USA, be sure to spend some time in Mexico and Canada first to accustom yourself to their funny North American ways.

    Martyduc reacted to JoEllen's post in the thread Tides for crossing with Like Like.
    Most of the boats that ferry pilgrims are the small fishing boats. The big ferry hasn't operated for years and probably won't for the forseeable future. We crossed the first time with Xacobeo Transfer https://xacobeotransfer.com/en/home/. We...

    Martyduc reacted to Parksville's post in the thread Question about Alsa bus tickets with Like Like.
    I recently booked ALSA tickets on line. I went to 'Other' and used my passport number. That worked well. But I then had difficulty paying online - the system repeatedly crashed when I went to 'secure payment' for my credit card. Again I went to...
