LIVE from the Camino Fuertebrazos on the Camino del Norte
Well of course I have an umbrella. But I thought I would use it for sun protection.- Fuertebrazos

Do you drop any personal restrictions on Camino?
I'm pretty disciplined at home. Food, exercise, routine. On the Camino, anything goes.- Fuertebrazos

LIVE from the Camino Fuertebrazos on the Camino del Norte
I'll be walking just seven days, San Sebastian to Bilbao. It's a warm-up, a test, and perhaps I'll return to do the rest later. I've done Frances, Portugues and a big chunk of Via de La Plata. This feels like the logical next step. I was worried it would be too hot. No need. I'm underdressed...- Fuertebrazos

LIVE from the Camino Via de la Plata
I took a cab to the entrance of the park rather than walk along that road, which would not have been pleasant. The park was wonderful. I walked with a couple of Koreans, one of whom spoke Japanese, which I learned after living in Japan for a few years. How did you cope with that insane hill at...- Fuertebrazos

chatGPT suggested packing list - just for fun
Yeah, I tried it and OpenAI banned me. Unclear why, and my queries to the OpenAI support line go unanswered. I had used OpenAI to write a program that scraped data off websites and maybe it viewed my program as malicious. Astonishing how well OpenAI can answer questions about a fairly...- Fuertebrazos

Accommodation prebooking
I pre-booked the entire way through Pilgrim, a travel service. I told them how far I wanted to walk each day and the level of accommodations I wanted and never had to think about where to stay. Did this on the Frances, the Portugues, and the lower reaches of the Via de la Plata. I'm sure it...- Fuertebrazos

Is Business Class Worth the Extra Cost for Long Haul Flights to Madrid?
TAP Air Portugal has business class deals on the route I take, which is JFK to Lisbon or Madrid. I can't get a fare to Madrid, I go to Lisbon take a cheap European airline the rest of the way. Relatively cheap business class fares pop up periodically. You just have to watch for them. I've paid...- Fuertebrazos

LIVE from the Camino Walking the Via de la Plata with New Friends
Looking forward to reading about your journey. I attempted the Via de la Plata in November. Far lonelier walk than yours. I'm amazed how many people you met. It also got kind of cold and rainy by the time I got north of Merida and eventually I headed to Malaga for pizza and swimming. Maybe in...- Fuertebrazos

My VldP celebrity sighting
When I told this story to a friend of mine, who has written several fiction and nonfiction books, she said that if she ever met anyone in real life who had read any of her books, she would be absolutely flattered and thrilled. (Gerald seemed nonchalant.)- Fuertebrazos

My VldP celebrity sighting
Now that I've got your attention... It wasn't actually on the VldP, and he wasn't a major celebrity. But perhaps he's a celebrity to the people who frequent this forum and have walked this Camino. After ending my walk (for now) in Cáceres, I wondered down to Gibraltar for a couple of days and...- Fuertebrazos

Ukrainian flag colors on VdlP guide markers?
Most of the little concrete posts along the Andalusian parts of the VldP, in addition to an arrow pointing the way, have a yellow and blue rectangle on the front. Those are the colors of the Ukrainian flag. When I first saw these, I thought "Isn't it great that Spain is showing solidarity with...- Fuertebrazos

LIVE from the Camino Whew! Finally starting VLDP
You are good ar reading between the lines, Blister Bill. Yeah, I've lost heart. I think Cáceres will be the end of the walking part of my Camino. I'll take the train to Plasencia and check out my original destination of Salamanca, then return and finish in the spring. Thanks for the...- Fuertebrazos

LIVE from the Camino Whew! Finally starting VLDP
Day 12: Valdesalor. Today I walked to Alcuéscar, couldn't find a place to stay - the places listed in Kelly's guide had closed - and ended up taking a taxi to Valdesalor. The driver let me out at a place he knew, basically a guy's house with a couple of rooms to rent. I went to buy a sandwich...- Fuertebrazos

North of Salamanca? Congrats, Rita. I'm definitely not catching up to you now. I'm with you, 33+ km is crazy. 20, 22, 25 km at the outside. Looking forward to a rainless day out of Zafra and seeing your posts more often. Maybe I will even see another pilgrim in real life today!- Fuertebrazos
