small dress points and biggish question

[wisdom's aspirant]

Thank all of you for the fine ideas regarding things to take and monetary
safety on the Camino! They are very helpful.

I am really curious about the very light packs. Does the weight of 12 pounds
include water and a couple of books? (about 1 1/2 quarts of water, Linda's
book, a small novel, and a small Spanish dictionary)? I thought I had my
pack pretty well pruned down to essentials but I still have about 22 pounds,
with the water and books.
