Perfect lightweight backpack for baguettes??

[David]

Hi all - have I found the perfect lightweight backpack for carrying fresh baguettes? (Ideal for the French Caminos).

Also, the long narrow shape would be perfect for dropping an umbrella into and closing the zips so it is open above your head .... oh, so perfect - hey, you could even put trekking poles in it! Backpack straps but no hip belt ... but we are pilgrims and are used making compromises .....

only £10.95 delivered on Ebay and you can get it in Camino blue too - What's not to like??

I've often fancied one of the big packs that doubles as an emergency albergue.

Having carried around lots of baguettes on camino in France this June...I think I could rig up a hipbelt to make it a nearly perfect solution to carrying baguettes

Don't know why you would want a guitar case when you can get a cello case

The charm of a freshly baked and bought baguette is that you hold it under the sweaty armpits for some time to get the typical taste and flavour as we are used to consume in France

You took a picture of me without telling me!!

Wrong wrong wrong! It’s obviously shaped to carry the only thing a true pilgrim needs: one gigantic bottle of wine!

shop in Astorga... might make for a big list

The freshly baked baguettes (with cheese and jamon) never made it more than a block so would not need a bag!

This may be the most important post I’ve ever read on this forum!

Baguettes? That's what those stretchy side pockets on your pack are for!

Surely room for both...plus some French cheese

And with the shape of the pack you could also swing by Wimbledon to get a few sets in before jetting off to your Camino starting point, that is if you’ve remembered to put the tennis racquet inside! Yay Team Camino!
