  Jarrad reacted to Tincatinker's post in the thread Price of air tickets in 2025 with Haha.
  
  Probably a bad time to be looking at flights “Holidays” (I hate that phrase, it’s f’ing Christmas) inflation on flight prices will carry through. Try looking in February when the Dynamic Pricing Botts and the Bottom Liners in Accounts are...

  Jarrad reacted to Waka's post in the thread Old Camino Walkers with Love - Red heart.
  
  It's now seven weeks since I returned from doing he Frances and what a wonderful 40 days it was. I'm sure there are possible pilgrims out there that worry that they may be too old to walk the camino, but I can assure you there is no age barrier...

  Jarrad reacted to Rick of Rick and Peg's post in the thread Short Stage Plans with Like.
  
  I was going to suggest the same way @KiwiJohn did in post #3, a stay at Orisson but add Borda as an alternative. @Tincatinker in post #7 also has a similar idea, stopping in Valcarlos. If you already walked the Napoleon route this is definitely a...

  The Chemin d'Arles is mainly (if not all) GR and the GR system of waymarking is infinitely superior to the yellow arrow system having been devised before GPS existed. Keep your eyes on the route and you should be fine. The only time you will...

  The Corporal who taught me dead-reckoning navigation and how to read a map gave me one really good piece of advice: “slow down, your target isn’t moving. Your job is to get there”.

  Jarrad reacted to Tandem Graham's post in the thread Well, it's happened with Like.
  
  Not everyone would agree on my recommendation: why not start from Burgos and enjoy the Meseta and its wonderful monotony of big open spaces? Depending on your daily distances, you might or might not reach Santiago in three weeks, but you will...

  I highly recommend the Primitivo. You could spend a couple days in Oviedo (the official start of the Primitivo and a lovely place to experience) and a couple days in Lugo (also a lovely place which happens to be 100 KM from Santiago). The...

  Jarrad reacted to WalkingPlaylist's post in the thread From Catholic News Service: True Christian pilgrimages are rooted in silence, the Gospel, pope says with Like.
  
  The logic argument seems to work in the Pope's favor and what he says is true. The route IS a Catholic Pilgrimage...period. Those that are not Catholic and choose to walk it should be respectful. They don't have to partake in the pilgrim...
