<font size=2>I have just completed reading the 9 episode article of
his trip on the Camino by John Sibley of the Ottawa Citizen Newspaper. I
found the 9 articles along with pictures, actually 12 as three articles
had 2 parts, very informative and an excellent adventure for the armchair
traveler. I strongly suggest that anyone interested or planning to hike
the Camino read his article. I found answers and/or suggestions to many
of the questions that appear on this listnet. If you have a copy of Linda
Davidson's and David Gitlitz's book The Pilgrimage Road to Santiago, use
it along with John's article as he hikes over the trail in Northern
Spain. Click on the website below for the Contents page along with a 2-3
line description of each episode and then click the link for the
article.<br>

want to hike the last 100 km. be sure and start in Sarria and not
Portomarin as suggested by one website -<br>

"Early in the afternoon, I passed through the hamlet of
</font><font size=2 color="#0000FF"><b>Brea</font></b><font size=2> with
its three or four houses. </font><font size=2 color="#7F007F"><b>Just
beyond Brea was a concrete stele on the right side of the trail that
indicated I was 100 kilometres from
</font><font size=2 color="#0000FF">Santiago</font></b><font size=2>."
Episode #7. <br>
<br>
Brea is between Sarria and Portomarin.<br>
