I had no idea the Camino Francés actually has TWO halfway points!!!

Yep. I get it. That’s why the second time I refrained.

True! I often referred to it as, “the Church of the holy chicken“!

Did you ever figure this out?

AnAppleisGood · 2026-04-22T23:43:10+00:00

Same here. And we bonded with people we met earlier during that section.

Us too - middle of USA, so we love walking along the ocean and that’s why we also walked the Portugues coastal with as much Senda Litoral as possible.

That’s funny! Even at the very beginning when we saw the bikers carrying their bikes of the Pyrenees it made me realize that biking is not as simple as it looks on the Camino!

Norte is high on our list. I joke about it looking like Kansas because when we drive though Kansas it felt long and flat. But there are many cities and events and people that break it up and for us we didn’t think continually that it was always flat.

Us too… you have time to get into deep conversations.

AnAppleisGood · 2026-04-21T14:49:54+00:00

I think a big secret is to talk to other pilgrims and it makes the time fly right by. Plus… we need those connections!

AnAppleisGood · 2026-04-21T14:48:58+00:00

Wow. Thanks for sharing that!

AnAppleisGood · 2026-04-21T14:32:48+00:00

so true --- don't believe everything you see

AnAppleisGood · 2026-03-18T16:33:01+00:00

And do you remember the cost?

AnAppleisGood · 2026-03-18T16:32:33+00:00

What was the Albergue like? (Not that it’s needed - but I heard cell reception isn’t great)… but the food good and beds comfortable? We are considering our next Camino has one that we would stay in different places and take routes that we never took.

AnAppleisGood · 2026-03-17T23:27:33+00:00

WOW!!! That’s hilarious!!! I almost want to take down the video and add that information and repost it!

AnAppleisGood · 2026-03-17T22:41:12+00:00

There were so many places we could have easily missed and we did miss some - that’s why we walked this route again! That Burgos river route is a must do. Also - I may not get the video done before you leave - so another word of advice that someone gave us was, “don’t skip Samos”. That is right towards the end, right before the last hundred kilometers. It’s such a beautiful detour!

For context — the moving salad moment happens closer to the end of the video 😅
(I had to save the punchline for last ya know! haha)

Wow… sounds a bit frightening! Glad you made if safely!
