Hello BlackRocker57, I am also from Australia,
wondering if you saw recent program on SBS with Michael Portillo walking parts of the Pyrenees?
He visited Benat, and Inaki Alberdi whose family have made Makila snce 1948.

How wonderful, I hope your plan comes to pass.
We also have waited for 2 years, and are just starting to review our plan from 2019, it feels so good to once again have a Camino project.
Buen Camino
Your story touched my heart, the love between your father and yourself, the special moments and memories you now have are such a blessing.
Take especial care of yourself during the coming time until you are ready to walk with your father beside you in spirit, but always in your heart.
Absolutely, as I walk through the eucalyptus groves near my home, I am transported to areas of the Camino Frances.
Apart from the visual likeness, there is the fragrance, the silence, the breeze through the trees…..…calling to the longing in my heart to again walk a Pilgrimage.
Thank you Robo, I really enjoyed your three stories.
Something about having walked the Camino makes me thirst to hear “stories” of the experiences of others, can’t seem to get enough.
