    September 2014 Peregrinos

    Thank goodness I leave Aug 24. But I'm a bit of a snail. Someone is still likely to overtake me.

    I do wonder how much more we larger people carry in weight because of our clothes. I'm not obese but I am overweight and I have large feet for a woman. No doubt it adds a couple pounds all together. My sandals, convertible pants, fleece, bra, etc. Easily an extra couple of pounds. I've given...

    September 2014 Peregrinos

    It's a truly beautiful story of two lifelong friends. Honestly, friends since they were days old. They are from here in the States. One has a degenerative disease that has left him unable to walk, dress, feed and toilet himself. It began after he was married and began a family. He has a...

    My "name" here is really the names of two of my grandmas. They were strong, feisty, loving, protective women born in the late 1800s. I admire their grit. So I made them the standard bearers for my pilgrimage. My real name is Sandi

    September 2014 Peregrinos

    I'm walking to Orisson and staying for two reasons: 1. I'm a 55 yr old flatlander with mild MS, and 2. I'm a fast walker who needs the reminder to slow down on this journey. For me, it is a spiritual pilgrimage, not a tour. I have to remind myself to slow down.

    My return trip is also October 10. I fly into O'Hare. But I start on Aug 24. I bet we see each other along the way anyway.

    If you're willing to go back a few days, I start August 24. Camino Francés. Starting in SJPdP

    I'm starting on Aug 24 and spending my first night at Orisson. So for those starting the 25th and doing the SJPdP to Roncesvalles stretch in one day, we're hopefully meeting up there. BUT---this is what I want to post to the August September crew: we will potentially be running into two...

    Camino Frances August/September 2014 - Anyone else going?

    I will be sure to get my forum patch and sew it on! I'm the white-haired American with the light blue and gray Osprey pack. Probably moving at a snail's pace, ha ha.

    That would be wonderful Angelo. I intend to be a very slow walker for the first week. I'm sure we will find each other along the way. ZolaRose

    Mitch237uk- You are the first person I've seen who will leave on 24 Aug. I will also leave that day, though I will stay in Orisson to allow myself time to adjust to walking at altitude. I'm from the US and live at sea level. I hope we meet up! Zola Rose

    Camino Frances August/September 2014 - Anyone else going?

    Catarina, I will start in St Jean on Aug 24 and spend my first night in Orisson. I will also be walking alone. My family has gotten accustomed to my solo wandering a. I'm twice your age. Tell your family that someone double your age is doing it alone. Maybe that will help? And maybe we...
