[QUOTE="TMcA, post: 845106, member: 3231"] Many people, myself included, find that meeting people from all over the world, breaking bread with them after a long day's walk, and sharing each other's life trajectory, are a major element of why we enjoy walking the Camino routes. Social distancing makes these things a little more difficult because there is a lot less intimacy when conversing from a distance of six feet. Or even three. Another thing that I wonder about is how albergues, where common rooms are filled with bunk beds and people eat communally, are going to manage socal distancing as they reopen. Despite your family situation and the limitations always involved with having a teenager and possibly other children in your home, I think your best bet for the full Camino experience might be to wait until 2021 or even a little longer - until your teenager is out of the house in college or in the workplace. In the meantime you can profit from the delay by getting used to your gear, doing hiking closer to home (when restrictions are lifted), studying Spanish, and reading this forum which will help you answer many questions which are always part of the lead in to the first steps on the first Camino. The anticipation/planning of any big trip is part of the journey, in my opinion, and it's a time to enjoy and savor. [/QUOTE]
