3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
September 17, 2012. I wasn't sure where I would stay in Belorado but the decision was made during the last few kilometres along the senda running parallel to the N-20. It was a very hot day. Those last km's seemed endless. A car appeared moving slowly along the shoulder of the road. As it reached our group of 3, the driver stopped and passed out ice cold bottles of water, waved and moved on to the next group of pilgrims. There was a label on the bottle inviting us to stay at the Albergue de Peregrinos Cuatro Cantones. It was a wonderful, very welcoming albergue - the driver was the hospitalero :)

Same thing happened to us, Oct 2016.

Is that the one with the very high top bunks, designed by the owner, who had been a pilgrim and had learned from hitting his head off low top bunks? Where the tiny water pool was such blessing for poor feet?
 
Wouldn't it be neat if someone had a picture of the exact same mojone with the prior year's boot on it.

Sorry, it's my second picture of the day but isn't it neat that ...
Okay, okay, I guess today is cheat day on the Camino April 21, 2016. That is neat! 😆😉 mine has a little splash of added color and fresh flowers.

Possibly! There was a small pool and in my notes I noted that the bunks were "solid with good headroom". I just looked at the website. They did a compete renovation in 2016 but the bunks look as I remember them. There is a photo of the same hospitalero (Nicolas) with his family. On the contact page he talks about the water delivery :)

Sorry, Theatregal, don't mean to derail, but I need to say, no, not that place. The one we stayed in was on the right, not long after the parochial albergue. The small foot pool in the garden was just that, nothing more, not like the facilities in yours! Some time I will find the couple of photos I still have of that place.
Edit: found one, the tiny foot pool.

Tortoise and hare.

The couple would zip past me. Then sit. I’d pass them. After third of fourth time they laughingly called me the tortoise.

I also took some pics on my first Camino of abandoned shoes , I have always had a double feeling about it.
Yes, they are a picturesque sight ( with a bunch of wild flowers in it ) but on the other hand it is just plain litter imo. I never understood why people just did not carry it to the next village and put it in a garbagebin?

Ok, less grumpy now... :)

My first picture of the Camino Vasco Interior . Flecha in Irun. Inland we went , instead of following the Norte.

Gosh, it looks freezing @nycwalking! These memories are so precious, freezing or not.

My first picture of the Camino Vasco Interior
I love other people's photos of a place I've been. Everyone notices something different.

My enduring memory of at least half of this day is the deluge, and it shows on this photo! Here is my first photo from the Vasco, a bit farther along, once across the autovia and out of Irun. It was wet. But I was happy - the first day of a camino is always special, and this time I had the luxury of a whole month of walking ahead, and the company was wonderful.

The first time I walked together with another pilgrim, planned that is. I 'm glad that we quickly found a " social rhythm ".
We would have breakfast together and then each could go our own way! With you occasionally shouting to me when I took a wrong turn.
Still a wonder I found my way independently walking into la Puebla de Arganzon!

No in all seriousness , it was a gorgeous Camino.
To all future pilgrims who decide to walk together with someone else who is not a familymember : do not be shy to talk about finances and expectations when you decide to walk together.
We knew this Camino would be more expensive than others so we had to book private hostales or pensiones sometimes.
One of you might prefer to have a lie in after finishing for the day or read a book. The other might prefer to walk into the pueblo or town. Enough options and one is not better than the other.
I felt a bit under the weather when we had to tackle a particular difficult etapa.I preferred to take public transport.So don't try to be a hero either just in order to follow your fellow pilgrim.

How important the breaks are! My best Camino buddy again, my daughter, taking a break, on a winter Camino. Germany 2017, somewhere near Biberach (Ulm- Constance). I wanted to post this picture because it's like total opposite to my yesterday's picture in which the break is under the hot Spanish sun.

August 2, 2015. A very strange experience along a dirt road between Apúlia and Marinhas on the Camino Portuguese Coastal. Dozens and dozens of abandoned shoes and boots - some pairs but mostly mismatched. Some seem to have been recently placed and some appeared to have been there a long time. It looked like many had been buried - sticking out of the dirt along the bank. A few were squashed on the road, like they'd been driven over. :oops: Definitely not pilgrim shoes!

That is strange. Unofficial dump, I guess or a burial site for shoes. :)

Hey, it's anarchy here. Whatever is just fine. I will save my only abandoned shoe pic for tomorrow, just to be contrary. If I can find it, that is.
@VNwalking, I just love this photo ... it's 'alive'! The colours; the setting; I can hear that water flowing ... thank you! 😇
 
I’m sure I have a shoe photo.…
October 23, 2015 My shoes on the beach at Finisterre. They were horrible shoes, and I suffered terribly with blisters most of the way across Spain. I took the off here, soaked my feet in the healing water of the ocean, and never wore them again!

Rick,
Thanks for your map. I totally missed the nearby Dolmen de Chacarradía as I continued on toward Jose Ramon's relaxed albergue de Lorca .
 
Love on the Camino Porto, 2019. This was in Padron. I got there with a great anticipation of eating a big plateful of yummy Padron Peppers, only to find out they were not in season! But the sight of this mama duck caring for her ducklings with such love and care made my day. She was making the best out of what's available.

The unsung heroes behind the wine industry of La Rioja. Had a brief chat with these friendly lads, all came from Mali. Like many migrant agricultural labourers, it is perilous work, particularly in such heat with very basic living conditions and remuneration being provided.
Would make you feel very grateful for our own standard of living and station in life.

I’m very grateful for this thread and this forum as a whole. Yes, I too feel that connection that only Camino can create. Thanks for being here, thank you all. ☺️ Keep on dreaming of those days a’walking.
 
I love the daily connection with the Camino that this thread provides. It’s a wonderful way to feel present on the Camino with fellow pilgrims.
I hope I have enough photos left to last until I can go back and take a whole lot more! It’s very helpful to see the variety of subject material other posters have chosen to photograph. Thank you everyone.

Pedacaes, we are standing on Ponte Velha do Marnel, dating from the 2ndC part of the original Via XVI. This machine was cutting out all the weeds etc from under and beside the restored medieval bridge which has Roman foundations. We walked over this bridge on a stretch of Roman road. CP, May, 2016.

Likewise. I didn't even know it was there.

Creepy. Thank God they were unoccupied shoes.
There has to be a story here.
😱

So as threatened, I'm still on a shoe theme.
🙃
I only took one photo of dead shoes, early in my first camino from Leon. I didn't know then that there would be many more.

Almost in Vila Do Conde.CP 2015.
A lovely town.

I remember us being enticed inside a cafe that had a brazier outside... a little east of the ship in the port. It was the end point of a lovely day from Oporto...
ah! Thanks for this memory, Sabine!
 
I've responded to a couple of posts today so please forgive me if I post one more. Some people plant up discarded boots (as we've seen in previous photos) ... and some people plant up discarded clothes. I wonder if these jeans were discarded by a pilgrim - just outside Pamplona. I love all the scallop shells that decorate the walls.

Very fond memories of Rabé de las Calzadas!
Ditto. Going in the evening to Vespers with the Sisters makes it a wonderful stop. And it has one of the nicest albergues on the Camino Francés.

Last time I was there, many of us walked down to the convent and the look of delighted surprise on the face of the nun who opened the door was priceless: "Oh! So many pilgrims!"

I have no recollection whatsoever. I looked at my credential and according to the stamps, we had stayed the night in Tardajos, two kilometres before Rabé de las Calzadas. Maybe I was sleep walking through it.
 
August 12, 2015. Camino Portuguese Coastal. Looking back over Vigo, I was relieved to be above and out of that bustling intense city but happy to have spent a day there exploring a bit. It's a very interesting public art city with murals and sculpture as well as MARCO, - the wonderful Museum of Contemporary Art.

How many miles and experiences have those boots had! The one on the left looks like it took it's last gasp and said "no more".

A very warm, beautiful day, with nary a cloud in the sky. Enroute to Los Arcos, I really needed a Zumo de Naranja. There like an oasis in the desert was Eduardo's cafe bar. This is the second photo, as when I looked at my first photo, I realised that I had also taken a picture of a young German woman, changing out of her shorts behind the bar. I rapidly deleted the shot. A great day with a variety of people to talk to, from around the globe. CF June 2016.

One of my favourite sections of any of the caminos was also on the first day on the Frances. The sheer tiredness from the the hike over the Pyrenees turns to delight strolling through the beech woods on the descent into Roncesvalles (May 2014).

Los Arcos CF June 2016. I enjoyed Los Arcos, however it was full to overflowing with pilgrims. Nice to meet up with people, but too full. A nice unannounced Mass ended the day, only about 6 locals and 3 pilgrims attending. Tommorrow will be an early start.

You are such a fountain of knowledge. I am in awe of the number of consecutive years you have been on the Camino Frances. Do you walk certain sections each year or do you walk the entire length each year? I guess living in France is such an advantage - travelling from Australia limits our Camino efforts though I must say we haven't ventured onto either of the 2 Caminos in Australia - the way of Mary Mackillop and the other one in Western Australia. Neither are as long or as well catered as the European pilgrimages.

@mspath, yes ... it's 'interesting that we are 'called' to journeys further afield. Still, I've often said 'we meet the people we are meant to meet in life' & if they are on a path further afield ... that's where we will be called to! Maybe you need to meet them on Camino, so they can take those lovely trails back home in Australia, with you? We are 'called back' for a reason, time & time again (don't question it) & only those (like us) who have been on Camino, understand this. It is not for us to question, but to Hope, Trust, & Believe! Keep on, keepin' on. Buen Camino! 😇

WOW what an achievement - I'm even more in awe. I began walking my first Camino as a 60th birthday "treat" in 2013, with my husband and trusty "Bronte Bear", who I made from my husbands Grandmother's coat. On that walk we met an English couple - he celebrated his 79th birthday with us in Ponferrada. I vowed then that I would continue on these paths for as long as I am able. All your walks must provide you with the most special memories ... congratulations ... I'm sure you've been such an inspiration along the way. Please keep posting.

@mspath, your knowledge, experience, tips etc are invaluable ... so keep writing! How beautiful that you still have all those wonderful memories! I work with the elderly & a lot of them cannot remember some of their hapoy times. Please write about these 'journeys'. They are treasured memories, especially for your family, children, grandchildren, when you are no longer here. I'm sure you've passed on your 'gypsy wandering traits' to someone in the family ... & who, did You inherit it from? Happy research & writing! The Camino never leaves you! 😇👣🥰

CF June 2016. 0553 hrs, looking back at Los Arcos, enroute to Logrono. Up early to try and get ahead of a big wave. The photo looks darker than it was. I had checked the route the previous evening, so didn't need a torch. No one else on the road. As I stayed in a private hostal, I didn't wake anyone else up either.

2019 on the Primitivo. Isn't this cute? By the way, here is something that might make you smile.
  • I don’t always go the extra mile, but when I do it’s because I missed my exit.
  • A recent study has found women who carry a little extra weight live longer than men who mention it.
  • Kids today don't know how easy they have it. When I was young, I had to walk 9 feet through shag carpet to change the TV channel.
  • A thief broke into my house last night. He started searching for money, so I got up and searched with him.
  • When I was a kid, I wanted to be older…this is not what I expected.
  • Marriage Counselor: Your wife says you never buy her flowers. Is that true? Me: To be honest, I never knew she sold flowers.
  • We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a lot more information in our heads.

CHOVE EN SANTIAGO

LLUEVE EN SANTIAGO

Chove en Santiago
meu doce amor
camelia branca do ar
brila entebrecida ao sol.

Llueve en Santiago
mi dulce amor
camelia blanca del aire
brilla entre tinieblas al sol.
Chove en Santiago
na noite escura.
Herbas de prata e sono
cobren a valeira lúa.
Llueve en Santiago
en la noche oscura.
Hierbas de plata y oro
cubren la vacía luna.
Olla a choiva pola rúa
laio de pedra e cristal.
Olla no vento esvaido
soma e cinza do teu mar.
Mira la lluvia por la calle
quejido de piedra y cristal.
Mira en el viento desvanecido
fuente y ceniza de tu mar.
Soma e cinza do teu mar
Santiago, lonxe do sol;
agoa da mañan anterga
trema no meu corazón.

Fuente y ceniza de tu mar
Santiago, lejos del sol;
agua de la mañana ancestral
tiembla en mi corazón.


It is raining in Santiago,
My sweet love.
The white camellia of the air,
Shines between twilight and the sun.

It is raining in Santiago,
In the dark night.
Herbs of silver and gold,
Cover the empty moon.

Look at the rain in the street,
Moaning of crystal and stone.
See, in the wind vanishing,
Fountain and ash of your sea.

Fountain and ash of your sea,
Santiago, so far from the sun.
The water of the ancestral morning,
Is trembling in my heart.
Federico García Lorca

Lorca is the most celebrated poet of Spain. Most of his poems were written in Castilian and inspired by Andalucía and Granada where he spent his childhood and youth. However, he had happy connections with Galicia and had several Galician friends. This is part of his tribute – ‘Six Poems In Galician’ and was written in that language. Strange to say, it has rained in Santiago on every occasion I have visited it.

I have posted this before, but it is one of my favourites of Santiago.

Constructed, you will not be surprised to hear, to a design by a student of monsieur Eiffel. There is a railway bridge just up the Douro to a similar design. When we lived in Porto we taught English and I had a class of railway engineers and administrators. One day, they all ran out of the room in great excitement - apparently two trains had found their way onto the bridge at the same time, an event widely expected to result in its collapse. Happily, the bridge is still there, in fact in 2018 we went over it to reach São Bento station, which is a stunner.
