Hi all,
In Ferrol right now, starting Ingles tomorrow. Just noticed my wife forgot her poncho, tomorrow is sunday so no chance to get one here in Ferrol i´m afraid.
First days look sunny but you never know, anyone an idea where we could pick one up along the way?,
Thanks ,
Marc and Chris
 
Let us pick up your suitcase once you arrive in Europe....
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).

Hi,

Can I ask what poncho you bought there? And were there plenty there to choose from?

I ask because I'm not sure which to get and thought it would be better getting one in a shop as opposed to online.

Many thanks
 
Sure, we found one in a chinese shop on the mainstreet of Ferrol.
They had 3 kinds but only 1 which would fit over the backpack, also not the bestvof quality but what to expect for 5 euro. Luckily my wife found her poncho in one of the backpack´s pockets , it´s 1 from decathlon which is far better
 
Thank you for the reply,

I think we'll wait until we get there to get one from Decathlon as we arrive there on the Sunday but are not starting until the Tuesday so have a whole day to explore and get a poncho and find where to get our passports from.

Hope you enjoyed your Camino
 
Best lightweight pocket guides
Ideal pocket guides for during and after your Camino. Each weighs just 40g (1.4 oz).
Yes, then you have time, price quality the decathlon poncho's are excellent. Yeah we enjoyed the Ingles, only a few too long asphalt stretches but that part of most Camino´s i guess, and it was over too soon..
Enjoy and buen Camino!

Be aware that not every Decathlon store will have their full selection of ponchos in stock. You can use their website to see if the styles that you want are in stock at a particular store.

Good point. We are in Santiago for a day first so will check their site first and if they don't, we will try the Ferrol store. Thank you for the reply!
