Forum meet-up in Burgos? Saturday, June 10, 2023 (tomorrow!)

[peregrina2000]

@C clearly and I will be walking into Burgos tomorrow, finishing the Lana (me) and the Requena (her). We will be at the Pilgrim statue in front of the cathedral at 7:30 PM. Hope to see a few forum members.

I would have loved to have joined you! Would be great to hear the last day de-brief!

 

[ivar]

Ahh... can't make it over there. Hoping for pictures!

 

[trecile]

Wish I could be there!

 

[natefaith]

Woo hoo!! Have fun, @peregrina2000 and @C clearly ! Hope you can join up with a few others.

 

[Peregrinopaul]

Are you in Covarrubias? I’m at Casa Gelin tonight,
On second thoughts, that picture must have been last night.

 

[Peregrinopaul]

I might be there!

 

[C clearly]

Yes that was yesterday. We ate at Casa Gelin. Hope to see you tomorrow!

 

[jungleboy]

There in spirit! (In Ferrol in body)

 

[Peregrinopaul]

No other takers? I’ll have to make a special effort. No accommodation booked, so hoping the Albergue will have me.

 

[C clearly]

I’ll have to make a special effort.

No obligation at all. Just an idea if it happens to fit with your activities as the day evolves.

 

[rojasa]

Enhorabuena, Laurie y Claire!!! Been following your travels with great interest. (Understatement ) With you at the statue in spirit!

 

[Kiwi-family]

Thinking of you from my Antipodean spot....all the best

 

[dick bird]

Wish I could be there!

Me too. Buen camino.

 

[Camino Chrissy]

Bummer! I was in Santiago just two weeks earlier. It would have been great to see you again, Laurie, and to meet Clare as she and I have had several nice chats over the years!

 

[peregrina2000]

@C clearly has put up with having only me for company for so long that she will be able to handle another few nights. But we’ll still plan to be at the statue in case anyone comes along.

What are you talking about?! I have had to chase after you for weeks while you walked faster and faster to leave me in the dust!

Fèlicitations!
At 7:30 tonight I will raise a glass of our local champagne to you both. You both have done so much for this forum and for your local associations; it has always been a pleasure to read your posts.
Carpe diem,
Margaret

 

[VNwalking]

Oh, boy, I wish!!! At 7:30 tonight I'll be working.
But thinking of you both.

Heartfelt enhorabuena, amigas. Well done.
Pics, please.

 

[El Cascayal]

If only the Concorde was still flying & from here to there. Love and thanks to you both!

I didn’t take the picture but I assume my partner in crime will post it. You would have been in heaven,VN, because we were conversing with the author of the geological guide to the Camino Francés.

 

[C clearly]

the author of the geological guide to the Camino Francés

That is, apparently, still a work in progress though.

Thank you and "salúd" to those who toasted us. Paul entertained us by retelling the tale of "Ivar's box" over a bottle of vino tinto, so we got a photo of the box and promoted this thread to "Tales from the Camino."

Forum moderators never rest!

I'm a bit late to the game but here's a belated enhorabuena to you two peregrinas @peregrina2000 @C clearly . I've enjoyed your pictures and storytelling in Find Penguins Laurie. What an adventure it has been!
