    Class of 2008!

    Just in case I lose the original. It is easier to get a new one if you have all your details and I thought a copy may even be accepted. Just setting out now for the airport with mixed feelings. Excitement for the walk but a bit sad at leaving wife and friends for a month. John

    Honto and Orisson

    Hi, I will be arriving in SJPP in the afternoon of the 29th April. Can someone give me some idea of how long it will take, on average, to walk to Honto and Orisson respectively.

    Class of 2008!

    Hi , my name is John but being a common name on Fora, I tend to use pseudonyms. On this Forum I am Ethanday. I decided to walk the Camino several months ago and since then have been reading as many accounts as possible by those who have written about their Camino experiences. I have also taken...
