please! You’re close to going overboard here, aren’t you? Simply because she occasionally

granting the general safety of fuentes, and certainly granting the fundamental

the safety and undoubted interesting experiences that can only come through
sharing a refuge, these are not topics over which to argue vehemently.<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>

I see here is that some folks dislike others to write in manners that seem
absolutist or dictatorial. Others are objecting to the vehement responses to
the perceived admonishers. This is a tail-chase, folks. We’re all (would-be)
friends here; at the least, we’re fellow travelers. Let’s all spare each other
the personal attacks and characterizations, please. You each have some truth
and wisdom in your statements, que no?<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>

me the energy and experience of the Camino is enhanced by the sacrifice of <br>
comfort and privacy. You seem to have an elitist and cavalier attitude <br>
toward pilgrims with tight budgets or perhaps those who come from countries <br>
where the exchange rate is not as good as the dollar and can only afford to <br>
stay at refugios. <br>
