Like.
Considering that we were dipping ourselves in the sea in beautiful Zarautz yesterday evening it is certainly a change in weather today, however, that has not dampened our excitement of the walk that we undertook today. If you are thinking of... -
Rafael1214 reacted to CaminoDeChristiano's post in the thread Reflection in anticipation of the Camino with Like.
I'm not sure why I felt compelled to write something here though I feel as though others will relate to this. I will be leaving from Dublin via ferry to Cherbourg and walking over 1500km until I reach Santiago. This journey begins in a little...

Rafael1214 reacted to FourSeasons's post in the thread If you had to choose to skip a part of the route. What would be your choice? with Like.
So many good suggestions. If I were you and on my first Camino, I would not skip, not one step. On my first I was 50 yrs, I went from SJPdP to SdC in 34 days. This includes one rest day on day 21 in Virgin del Camino. (Because my body said so.)...
