The "Little Voices," in your head. First it's fear of course and fear is good. Just stop and breath....now...you will be fine! I know easy for me to say but a year from now you will smile at yourself. The arrows are well marked and if you get lost it is OK The worse thing is you may walk a few...
It's been a year...WOW the Camino taught me so many lessons about life, and did I need them! I am still in the hospital unable to walk it's been four months now. I know it's ironic that I walked 500 miles and now can't walk five feet. My problem is not because of my walking the Camino. I live in...
I must agree with you about, Acacio & Orietta in Viloria de la Rioja an experience I will never forget, I am writing a whole story about my stay. Love those people! She also treated me because I had a collapsed lung with a bad cough. She gave me the poison from a bee...it worked! The room...
Yes I did hear about this problem it may have been the 5 people I heard about, but it was in early July. One had to fly back to the US to be treated. When they went to the hospital, the blood test did show water poisoning. This is very unusual, but can happen. I had no problem on my walk and...

Thanks for such a overwhelming response to this thread, yes, the bench's are for us slow pokes, who are blister-less!
Maybe I should start a new group.."THE BLISTER-LESS GANG," I think I walked to fast for us slow walkers, my 500 mile walk, was only 56 days.
Hay MindiWalker, welcome home...or did you just leave it? The Camino has been, and always will be my home in my heart! Check out the video I made during my journey! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5f8xig5PSc4
Wow….this thread has turned into a fun run…oh… I mean walk. Thanks guys for keeping it positive and humorous with a good message. I will post a new story next week, so we can keep the ball rolling. I think it’s had over 2,500 hits, that means over 2000 people smiled, love it!
Now, a very...
I thought I was the only one? I was on the same walk recently and saw the same dogs? I even took photos and video of them. Don't remember the fence but do remember walking fast. I had a conversation with them (the dogs) and told them to be kind to the Pilgrims we were just visitors. I was in no...
