    mckrowdy reacted to good_old_shoes's post in the thread LIVE from the Camino For those worried about beds... with Like Like.
    ...I am on day eight of walking the Francés at the moment. It is quite busy. A lot of talk about beds (and the need to book ahead). I don't book. Today I tried really hard not to get a bed. I really tried. Got up late. Took my time to pack...

    So, I've just found about this event and thought it would be good to share here. The movie has been mentioned in previous posts, like this one. Unfortunately, I cant be in Sydney on that Thursday, but maybe others can! At Hayden Orpheum Picture...

    mckrowdy reacted to David Tallan's post in the thread Communion at the Cruz de Ferro? with Like Like.
    Interesting. When I was living in Spain (as a foreigner) some 35 years ago, I had a different understanding of a "puente". Not so much of holidays falling on Monday or Friday (which I saw as regular long weekends from my foreigner perspective...

    mckrowdy reacted to mspath's post in the thread Next after Camino Frances with Like Like.
    Many of us who have had the opportunity to walk the same camino multiple times agree with these lovely, poignant lines by Jose Saramago. "The end of one journey is simply the start of another. You have to see what you missed the first time, see...

    This thread made me chuckle at my memory of being at the Pilgrim Mass and returning from receiving Communion only to find our pew was miraculously repopulated during our absence... :)
