Back on the road again

[Jeff Crawley]

A big thanks to all who have unwittingly contributed to our knowledge of the Caminho Portugues.

My friend Jo and I set off on our fourth Camino (first time in Portugal though) from Porto on 27th May sticking to the coastal route.

Our credentials are ready and we already have the first "sello" from Canterbury Cathedral in England.

After years of putting up with massed snoring and the 5am rustling of plastic bags we're taking the softie option of pre-booked hotel and hostal rooms. All booked through www.booking.com, so no rushing for that last bed in the bunkhouse, some even come with breakfast thrown in and three have swimming pools (ah bliss!)

Our route and itinery are listed on a blog site (first time bloggers so don't expect anything exciting)

If you have any questions or we can pick up any information for you while we're en route feel free to ask - you can pm me at canterburypilgrim@hotmail.co.uk

Once again, many thanks for the guiding hands

ola and welcome and bom caminho -
quick aside: sello would get you a stamp/seal in spain, but it's a 'carimbo' you'd be asking for (stamp) on caminho portuguese. (to the best of my recollection)
auspicious beginning to get the first seal @ canterbury -- best wishes !
