PPerambulating Griffin replied to the thread Canadian Pilgrims - Freedom Mobile Question.Is it a flat fee like Roger's "Roam like home"? If so, it's $15 per day every time your phone connects to the infrasctructure. Far better to get a SIM or E-SIM.... anywhere from 15-40 euros for a month, depending on how many GB you want to buy.

PPerambulating Griffin replied to the thread Pork in Spain.I think those are called Fallow Deer. And IIRC from Michener, they are not hunted. EDIT: ... Hmmm.

PPerambulating Griffin replied to the thread Pork in Spain.Beef and pork cheeks rarely feature on a "mid budget" menu here in Canada, but I find them regularly at the more 'gastro-pub' places where they will braise these cuts for hours (it's cheap meat, but requires labour and patience to be delicious so...

AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!.I recently bought and successfully used noise-masking earphones on my all-too-brief walk on the Baztan (Bayonne to Pamplona) and the Frances (Pamplona to Logrono).

PPerambulating Griffin reacted to scruffy1's post in the thread Ups and Downs on the Camino with Like.
There are many 'What a lovely wonderful day that was' on the Camino but there are also days that are more difficult, 'Thank Goodness that's over'. History shows us that such was always the pilgrims' role. 14th Century Pilgrimage to SdC Licensees...

PPerambulating Griffin reacted to K_Lynn's post in the thread Surprised at our test results poncho vs jacket with Like.
I love my poncho! I have one from Decathlon that has full sleeves with elastic cuffs and a 1/4 zip, no flapping open sides. Easy to pull on and off over my pack and it's about $30 Canadian!

PI do not usually plan to stop at any particular albergues. I walk the distance that feels right for the day and then aim for the most convenient one. If that happens to be one I've stayed in before and enjoyed then I'll probably go there again...
