Great idea. I live in downtown Boston, a very walkable city that was created by adding landfill and, in the 19th century, annexing near by towns. The result is an odd shaped city of about 25 neighborhoods. I decided to make my urban walk an adventure. My goal was to walk in every neighborhood...
Yes the Cathedral was beautiful and much appreciated and the Pilgrim Mass was moving even though Boafumeiro was not used. But what I found special along The Way were the quite hours of prayer as I walked each day.
Thank you for all your help!!! I was able to get the tiles and look how nicely they look framed in my home!!! A nice way to remember the Camino each day!!
I like this idea. I’d add that both Valenca and Tui are wonderful towns. It’s worth spending a day in these towns before departing. The fort in Valenca and the Cathedral in Tui are both special.
Thank you Ultreia! Your posting means a great deal to me. I agree, we never know!!!! I love that folks at home were still with you on the Camino. I truly felt that way too. It was very special to feel their presence, knowing that they were with me and at the same time feel my thankfulness for...
Thanks for the kind words. I think it’s great to prepare emotionally, spiritually and physically. That said the Camino will happen. It will be your Camino. Wishing you the best. Buen Camino
Thanks for the kind words. The English Mass in SdC was so warm and meaningful. For the Offertory prayers we each had the opportunity to light a votive candle and name publicly or pray privately for our special intentions and then place the lite candle at the foot of the alter. So special!
Luckily we happened upon it. It was the end of the day and I noticed a sign at the hotel so we hurried over. They were so warm and kind and their blessing so meaningful. There were just 3 Peregrinos and we all felt so loved. Thanks.
