    My only regret walking

    Have done the frances twice once walking most of the way with people i had met in SJPdP, and once on my own, i preferred the later, because I could stop where I wanted, sleep where I wanted, and eat where I wanted, and also walk with who ever I wanted, i hope to return SAP and will go it again alone
