The Kindle version. Free today from Amazon (I suspect only US registered folk)
https://www.amazon.com.au/exec/obidos/ASIN/B003N3UZHY/ozbargain-22?tag=casaivar02-20

I enjoyed a quick squiz, and the first recipe (they are scattered throughout the book) at least appears to be at the level of this hopeless, yet ever hopeful, cook.

Product Description
**Wall Street Journal Top 10 bestseller**
**New York Times bestselling author**
If Joe and Vicky had known what relocating to a tiny mountain village in Andalucía would REALLY be like, they might have hesitated...
They have no idea of the culture shock in store. No idea they'll become reluctant chicken farmers and own the most dangerous cockerel in Spain. No idea they'll help capture a vulture or be rescued by a mule.
Will they stay, or return to the relative sanity of England?
Includes Spanish recipes donated by the village ladies and link to FREE photo book.

Regards
Gerard

Thanks! Worked for this Camadian.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Quite disappointing......Kindle thanked this Kiwi for her purchase - but it is failing to appear in my library so maybe there's some cross-the-ditch joke going on. That's not the disappointing bit. THAT would be the fact that I thought @gerardcarey had another story up and he didn't!
 
Downloaded, thanks!
I clicked on the link, and the site saw that I’m not in Australia. It gave me another link, to continue to the .com site, which I did, and then downloaded for free from there.

Thanks. Just downloaded for free in Oz.
 
Wait for it! 😊
I must be impatient. According to my Amazon account I bought it three times yesterday;-) Still no sign in my Kindle app though. However, today they are busy recommending I also buy Two Old Fools and and Two Old Fools in Spain Again....I'm not fool enough to be taken in by that.
Still disappointing...especially as everyone has scarpered off to watch the cricket at Grandpa's house and I'm all alone with a sunny afternoon stretched out before me - perfect for camino reading.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-

Hi Rachael!
Sure it's not in your Kindle library?
Sometimes, not always, I have to go into my Amazon account, then into the library section of that account, then give direction to download the book to a specific device.
This presumes of course that the purchase has been successfull.
Hope this helps.

Happy New year to you and yours,
Gerard

Hope you have managed to be successful by this time. I had a dreadful rigmarole this morning trying to get things sorted, but finally got the e-book. As usual, it was all due to a silly mistake I made.

Thanks, Gerard, for the link. 😊

Mine didn't download until I clicked on the option to read it in the Kindle app. Then it started downloading right away.
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
