del Norte around the 3rd May?

[blueskywa]

Anyone starting the del Norte around the 3rd May? Already weighed, packed, ready to go! Obviously can't wait to hit the road. Be nice to say Hi here on the forum

Not for me this year, but do enjoy it. A lovely camino. We walked it in early May/June. We had many cloudy days and a fair amount of rain, but we also had some glorious sunny days. And the landscape is spectacular. In May the flowers are simply stunning.

Thankyou Kangaroo....oops, Kanga,,, I saw you were from Sydney, hence the slip of the tongue! Always stop to 'smell the roses' and I enjoyed the Spring flowers on the Frances

Hi Loretta,
I'm also doing the Camino del Norte although, due to time restraints I am not sure where I am starting . I originally planned to begin in Saint Sebastain but I'm not sure now. I really want to go all the way but I might have to take transport at some point between destinations, however I aim to do at least 80 % walking.

Hi Gypsy We arrive in Madrid on the 2nd May and start in Irun on the 4th and with no time restraints have allowed 8 weeks!! We took 7 weeks for the CF - there's no rush!!! Will look out for you..

Lori,
I've just finished reading Buen Camino: a Pilgrimage Walk, by Peter Bugler. This describes the Norte very well - the two pilgrims do it in some style, avoiding Alburgues and enjoying lots of rest days and public transport days. (My kind of Camino!)

Hi Margaret, Hope it's an ebook - will look it up on my Kindle. Will enjoy the read but unfortunately it'll be as many alburgues as possible for us! We have allowed 8 weeks so we can saunter the Camino and have a few rest days along the way enjoying the Spring flowers

Unfortunately not, as I just looked too.
Hi Brianne...Thanks for your note. We are slow walkers so look forward to a chat if you overtake us! It will take us 2 days to get to San Sebastian! Yes, the 1st May can't come quick enough

Amazon Australia knows I like Camino books and always recommends new ones when I log on!
