Hi,
We are totally new to the Camino and would be travelling in October from Leon to Santiago. I am very worried about the weather conditions existing between Leon and Santiago (I do know the temps in these two towns because they are easy to track in the NET), especially I wonder what is the state at the higher geographical points. I'll try to ask more specific questions and hope I am not being a nag :

1 - is it raining on a daily basis? can it snow too?
2 - what are the lowest temperatures I can expect along our above mentioned route?
3 - Should we also take summer clothing?
4 - Should we take sleeping bags or can we trust finding proper and enough blankets in the private albuergos (or if there aren't private ones at some points along the way - in the non private Albuergos?)
5 - What is the weight in kilos you'd advise to carry (both for woman and for man)
6 - Are there private Albuergos all along this route (Leon to Santiago)? what is the expected price of such albuergos?
7 - Where in Leon or else can we get the certificate (for stamping)?
8 - Any other important tips for new inexperienced travellers -would be much much appreciated

many thanks
Efrat
