Forum meet-up in Burgos? Saturday, June 10, 2023 (tomorrow!)

3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
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.

€46,-
Are you in Covarrubias? I’m at Casa Gelin tonight,
On second thoughts, that picture must have been last night.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
No other takers? I’ll have to make a special effort. No accommodation booked, so hoping the Albergue will have me.
 
Ideal pocket guides for during and after your Camino. Each weighs just 40g (1.4 oz).
Thinking of you from my Antipodean spot....all the best
 
Bummer! I was in Santiago just two weeks earlier. It would have been great to see you again, Laurie, and to meet Clare as she and I have had several nice chats over the years!

Fèlicitations!
At 7:30 tonight I will raise a glass of our local champagne to you both. You both have done so much for this forum and for your local associations; it has always been a pleasure to read your posts.
Carpe diem,

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.
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.

Oh, boy, I wish!!! At 7:30 tonight I'll be working.
But thinking of you both.

Heartfelt enhorabuena, amigas. Well done.
Pics, please.
I didn’t take the picture but I assume my partner in crime will post it. You would have been in heaven,VN, because we were conversing with the author of the geological guide to the Camino Francés.

That is, apparently, still a work in progress though.

Thank you and "salúd" to those who toasted us. Paul entertained us by retelling the tale of "Ivar's box" over a bottle of vino tinto, so we got a photo of the box and promoted this thread to "Tales from the Camino."

Forum moderators never rest! 😂
