When you start walking you get a multi-paged cardboard booklet called a credencial. As you stay at pilgrim hostals and visit churches, you get stamps showing where you've been. To get into most albergues or hostals you have to show the credencial. Some hospitaleros (people that run the hostals) really study the credencial to make sure you're a pilgrim and not a tourist; others hardly glance at it and just stamp it.
Above are the first few pages of my credencial.

whoa, each one of those stamps looks like it could tell its own story
