Starting SJPDP
An overnight if there are vacancies, the walk across the mountain is demanding and breaking the journey before Roncesvalles is worth considering.- Caomhin O Fearghaill

Starting SJPDP
Be careful of the mountain weather, you are looking at an 8 hour walk, if the weather is poor, stay on the road, if you decide to walk the mountain, consider resting in Orisson. Take care of yourself and Buen Camino- Caomhin O Fearghaill

Vaseline in Spain?
Try Vick's vapour rub (usually for chests) to soothe feet, apply at night before bed. NOT NOT for blisters, though, or where there are open or weeping wounds on feet,- Caomhin O Fearghaill

Stops
To avoid the hard, confusing streets in Porto I took the metro purple line to Matosinhos (about 20 mins) and began my walk from there to Vila do Conde. So first stop Vila do Conde.- Caomhin O Fearghaill

Pilgrims Behaving Badly - Is the Camino Frances full?
Every year I hear about this kind of behaviour. It seems that for some the Camino is no longer a respected sacred pilgrimage..... just a long walk. It is always the few that ruins things for us all.- Caomhin O Fearghaill

Brierley's Map Book of the Camino Frances - Very Light
Heavens....toilet paper, tearing out pages........Brierley guides are sacred texts in my universe. I'm trying to imagine how desperate that pilgrim must have felt.
