    Ebro Zaragoza to Logroño

    T’was a chop; but at €15 for three courses including wine my expectations were modest; just not quite modest enough. I’ve no complaint, everything is going very well - it’s simply that the staff missed out on a premium sale, which is most likely my fault for travelling prepared to lose...

    Ebro Zaragoza to Logroño

    Yes, the new exit from Zaragoza is splendid, a well-constructed riverside-path The train station could be seen from orbit, it’s huge though largely uncontaminated by trains. I’ve finished the tweezing; but the proof of my success, or otherwise, will come in the morning when I risk reinserting...

    Saint Jean Pied de Port to Roncesvalles, leaving in the afternoon

    I’d say that looks unpredictable and best approached with care. The cow looks OK though. Buen Camino. It’s (mostly) downhill from there. I’m delighted you’ve put the spreadsheet away, and I hope you have a great time.

    Ebro Zaragoza to Logroño

    Well that all passed off peacefully. I do recommend Barrio El Tubo. Very busy from 20:00 onwards with a good mix of traditional and more inventive bars and restaurants. 29k to Alagón today. Inevitably flat, the route follows a river and train line, with mountains in the distance to the west...

    Ebro Zaragoza to Logroño

    Older and wiser (ahem!) I’m out of El Tubo whilst the locals are still arriving. I was recognised by a few - apparently I look like there’s no way I could possibly speak Spanish, and the memorable part is that I can. I take very few posters recommendations without reservation but a joint...

    Ebro Zaragoza to Logroño

    After a very long day via Barcelona I’m trying to get the Zaragozan licenced trade back on its feet and solve the Torreznos surplus for them. It’s worth the effort of getting here. I just managed to get to the Basilica before they knocked off to get a sello so I can set off promptly in the...

    Ebro Zaragoza to Logroño

    Just got a pass-out for eight days; Mrs HtD still being a little unwell - but improving - so by hook or by crook I’m going to do this stretch of the C Del Ebro. A automobile, ‘plane, train, train, automobile kind of day will see me in Zaragoza later this evening and we’ll go from there. I’ll...

    Saint Jean Pied de Port to Roncesvalles, leaving in the afternoon

    We really should have fitted you with a tracker. I spent a few hours virtually watching friends on the Berlin marathon on Sunday and I think you could have had quite an audience. Good luck.

    Credential

    Look under ‘Servicios y equipamiento’ for a € sign next to ‘Expiden la Credencial’ where it’s listed. Most often to be found at big municipales.

    Saint Jean Pied de Port to Roncesvalles, leaving in the afternoon

    On the positive side, it is now October and our esteemed colleague @JonnyRosa will have either succeeded or failed sometime within the next two weeks. In the event of success, I do hope he makes a report so that many might admit the slim possibility that they were wrong. In the event of...

    Scammed in Lisbon

    €3.75 flag-fall and €0.47/km. Journey is <10Km. Allow for traffic. €15-20 seems like a reasonable estimate. P2K’s been doing the trip annually for 20 years, so I’m inclined to trust her judgement. I’m a cheapskate, I took the metro which proceeded at not much over walking pace.

    Refrigerated medicine Transport services

    Catagorically, no. It’s a question which has been posed several times before - the follow-up being ‘is there a suitable refrigerated container I can carry’ to which, regrettably the answer has usually been ‘no’ - although I recall someone came up with a double-flask which could be topped up...

    LIVE from the Camino Currently on the Camino Inglés

    There are two short stretches which could be described as uphill. I recall stopping to figure out where the second was to find I was already over it. It’s a good walk, a fair bit on paved surfaces but it passes through ‘real’ Galicia, not through a tourist infrastructure. It has, however, been...

    These are travel hacks I typically bring. What are some of your travel hacks? I'm targeting the beginning of Fall.

    Janet - probably our only point of difference would be on the poncho, but that’s just personal preference. However, you lost me at ‘turtle fur ear band’. I’d happily order a box-full on the strength of your recommendation; but what are they?

    My 1st Camino from Madrid!

    The Camino de Madrid is best approached without expectations. I suspect Pablo will figure it out as he goes. Keep heading North and - if you see the sea, you should have turned left a couple of days ago.

    Ow my leg!

    If it were the result of an arrow-wound I suppose the answer would be obvious. Looking at Google maps it looks like you would be hard pressed to throw a rock in San Seb without hitting a physiotherapist. If you want a ‘same day’ appointment I’d suggest you start with the best-reviewed and keep...
