Fantasmas en el Camino...
Publicado por Unknown , 12:05
Los que
tenemos una cierta experiencia en los Camino de Santiago sabemos que no son
pocos, precisamente, los fantasmas que por allí merodean. Aquéllos que lo
primero que te dicen es el número de caminos que han hecho, que si tantas el
Francés, que si tantas la Plata, y que si la etapa más corta que caminan es de
40 km y al mediodía ya están en el albergue. Por no hablar de aquéllos que
dicen haber hecho caminos que en realidad nunca han pisado. Pero el título de
este post no se refiere a estos fantasmas. Resulta que también hay de los
“otros”.
Debo
reconocer que si mi relación con los fantasmas del más acá es complicada, con
los fantasmas del más allá es... inexistente. Jamás en mi vida, y he dormido en
todo tipo de conventos, monasterios y moradas variopintas, y muchas veces solo,
lo que decía, jamás he visto un fantasma (de los del más allá). Ya no digo
oído, que en mi caso sería normal porque soy un poco sordo. Digo visto.
Seguramente es porque tiene razón aquel amigo mío que dice que yo no veo
fantasmas porque no creo en ellos.
A lo
que íbamos. En el albergue de peregrinos del monasterio de San Salvador, en
Cornellana, en el Camino Primitivo,
dos peregrinos aseguran haber fotografiado uno. Bajo este párrafo está el breve
reportaje que informa de tal asunto. Así que si alguien de los que cae en este
post va a hacer el Camino Primitivo, que haga noche en dicho albergue y esté al
quite. Y luego que vuelva a entrar aquí y nos cuente qué tal. Si sigue vivo...

Camino Apps
Publicado por Unknown , sábado, 9 de mayo de 2015 10:53
Continuing with the theme of the Middle Ages encountering the 21st century, there are a number of apps for smart phones and tablet computers. American Pilgrims does not endorse any of these but simply presents them as being potentially useful apps to have while on the Road. Some of these are free while some have a nominal cost involved. Most of these are presently in Spanish but it is possible to create a serviceable translation into English through Google Translate.
• Camino by Biko: This app includes complete guides to the Caminos francés, aragonés, primitivo, del Norte, la Plata, Sanabrés and Finisterre (the inglés and portugués are missing at the present). Each route has information by stage, including albergues, route details, notes and "touristic" suggestions. The albergue listings include complete descriptions of each albergue, its equipment and infrastructure as well as nearby services. (Free, Spanish)
• Bluguía: This app is described as "a touristic, multi-media audio guide" for the Way of Saint James. The title is appended with "Galicia" but in the description it talks about "the french route". (Free, English)
• Camino de Santiago, Camino francés by Digital Lithium: A collection of maps published by the Instituto Geográfico Nacional. There is apparently useful additional information such as the location of albergues. The description says that the language is English but all of the descriptive information and images are in Spanish. ($1.99, Although not clear this price may purchase only one map and further maps must be purchased as needed.)
• Step Cal, The Pedometer: While not a Camino guide, this app estimates various walking measurements after being given a stride length. Operates in English or metric units. ($0.99, English, French, Spanish, German, Russian)
• Wise PIlgrim: The people behind the website WisePilgrim are in the process of moving their paper guides to mobile devices with an app for the iPhone, iPad and the iPod Touch. The present guide, the francés, is the first of six that will eventually be offered. Features include an albergue directory, services available in towns and cities, maps, elevation profiles and location awareness for devices that have GPS capabilities.
