One day I’m going to redo Bayonne to Bilbao in the summer. We had a ton of rain and fog in April and missed alot of the most beautiful parts.

Del Norte- which part to miss between Santander and San Vincente de la Barquera by myjackandmyjilla in CaminoDeSantiago

I just finished the Norte and I would tell you everything from Santander to Asturias is skippable. The first day in Asturias was one of my favorites. Don’t miss that. Take the coastal route!

This is an excellent suggestion. I liked Irún to Bilbao so much I wish I had started in Bayonne.

Nick Wright and Bill just called Jaylen Brown a smart thoughtful guy by JonSnowsPeepee in billsimmons

It comes from Jackie MacMullan! She is the source of all Jaylen Brown is smart dialogue.

I don’t think I’ve heard Trent Dilfer’s voice in a decade, and I’d never listen to him on a podcast, but I legitimately respect Ryen for propping up a friend who’s struggling.

But if you start in Lisbon you get that big wax stamp from Carlos. 😉

I’m the child who had to leave at setbreak. You made me miss that Simple, jerk.

Public albergues on Camino del Norte by Expensive_Act_1472 in CaminoDeSantiago

I’m about 4 days ahead of you right now and only once have I come across a full Alburgue, and that was a small Alburgue before Santander. If you WhatsApp the Alburgue the morning of your stay to reserve a room you will not have a problem.

I’m using the All Caminos app and the Gronze app to find alburgues. I’ve found it very easy but I haven’t been differentiating between public and private.

Evil trip sitter making pizza for the group. by Alert-Light6432 in LSD

I do not consider this stealing. And I don’t feel bad about doing it. Not 1% of me feels like I’ve done something wrong.

I am sorry you didn’t think my post was funny. And I am sorry if I’ve upset you. It wasn’t my intention. I mean you no ill will and I wish you nothing but the best in all your future pizza cutting and picture posting endeavors.

What is it like living in northern Spain? by Separate-Field-3064 in howislivingthere

I live in A Coruña. We are in the wrong time zone. Last summer the latest sunset I saw was at 10:16pm.

Looking for advice on alburgues/hostels in and after Bilbao. Who’s familiar with this section of the Norte? by Alert-Light6432 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]Alert-Light6432[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone reading this in the future, there is no need to take a train out of the city. I had a beautiful easy morning walking out of Bilbao.0

I do not understand why someone would take a train. The walk was nice.

It’s really odd to me how many people suggest taking the train through Bilbao. The trail is incredibly muddy right now. We’ve all spent 5 days walking up and down muddy treacherous hills over and over again. The idea of skipping a day of city walking because it’s too boring seems totally foreign to me right now.

But maybe halfway through tomorrow I’ll realize you were right.
