Journey completed and now back home

[Meldelcamino]

...with many fond abiding memories - and some others of windswept rainy days which will also linger in the memory! Enjoyable conversations with many fellow Peregrinos and the satisfaction of achieving a goal.

Congratulations !! We will attempt it next year, but find Brierley's book disappointing. We used it for the Camino Francais and found it very informative, and so we purchased his book and were very disappointed. Any suggestions for materials, maps ?? We would like to do the coastal route.

There is hardly any guide for the coastal. But is is not difficult to find. The ocean is allways at your left. In Vigo you have different ways to go through and iut.
We followed green way markers which stay low near the seaside the yellow ones go more into the hills .
Keep an eye on my travelblog. Specially about the ferry between Caminho and A Guarda.

Thanks once again to the many contributors on this Forum whose experiences and advice I found helpful, indeed, invaluable. For those contemplating the Coastal route: see my comments under the separate thread 'disappointed with Brierly maps...'. Gracias a todos y Buen Caminos.
