      It seems like this is more of a Burma whingeing thread than a Lana whingeing thread ;)

      FLEUR reacted to ShoshTrvls's post in the thread Camino with Baby with Like Like.
      I thought albergues generally provide beds to those who are walking (or bike riding) ... or at least making an effort to do so ... not those who are merely driving for an hour or so each day. But I guess maybe that's only municipals and you all...

      I'm assuming this is your first child. If my calculations are correct, you are the mother of a newborn. The first few months are no indication of what your baby will be like at 4 or 5 months. Right now, you can put that kid in a carrier and go...

      FLEUR reacted to lovingkindness's post in the thread Canal du Midi with Like Like.

      Lightweight sleeping bag covers all the bases. Be prepared! You'd be very surprised the vast number of people carrying little or no bedding who are shocked and dismayed to learn their 6 euro donation doesn't cover sheets and blankets.

      Bordeaux is on the Paris/Tours route to Santiago. Lourdes is a good starting point too, as others have suggested, though personally I have become more and more inclined in recent years to suggest switching up to Navarrenx and the Le Puy route...

      Just the fact that the app will give you a push notification when there is a new notification from the forum. I have som plans for changing the forum app for 2025. The way it is set up now is not working great.
