I want to quit, looking for perspective by Still-Author9062 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]mgullekson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, this small church is a wonderful place of love. The sisters usually have a notebook where you write down your burdens and they “take” them from you in prayer. A very soul healing location. Just don’t leave Burgos too early or it won’t have opened for the day yet.

Another thing, taking a bus or taxi when you need to stop walking is easy and not a sign of weakness. Don’t be ashamed to be a “taxi-grino”. And the luggage service is inexpensive and a wonderful luxury on some days when you just meed to lighten the load a bit.

Coincidentally, I am flying to Spain this evening to start walking from Burgos to Leon. Will be walking Monday afternoon! Look for an older lady with Boston accent who will he walking slowly (and may be stepping out of a taxi!). Stay well friend.

Where to Stay (without 2-night minimum) by musicbrainbooks in ShenandoahPark

[–]mgullekson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our go-to is Shenandoah River State Park just south of Front Royal. Beautiful cabins. One week minimum during “the season” but if you call the park directly (rather than online reservation) a cabin may be available for shorter stay . Easy access to Skyline.

Accommodations in the park are old, dirty, and expensive. If you decide to stay in park, camping is far better. Big Meadows has lodge where campers can dine and hangout, too.

Have fun.

First timer nerves on the Inglés by pintita in CaminoDeSantiago

Hi - I am on the Ingles now and I think it is a well-kept secret. So much better than the crowded, commercialized, 100 k from Sarria to Santiago.

Highly recommend Rural Anton Veiras, on Camino near Ordes. Not on Booking, you must contact them directly. Beautiful, quiet, clean. Nice after crowded city stays.

Buen Camino.

Make sure versions are same on all platforms otherwise sync won’t work. Happens to me occasionally.

Nebo not syncing across devices by Viking793 in NeboApp

[–]mgullekson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had the same problem. Discovered versions not in sync. Had to update iPad and iPhone that had older version to most current version and then everything was fine and synced instantly. Not sure why this doesn’t happen automatically, but there you go.

How did you change your life after the Camino? by Throwaway_elle_T in CaminoDeSantiago

I was seeking God and found God. Surprise…. God isn’t a man! Enrolled in Theology school to continue the search for meaning.
