Dear John - I add my voice to the multitudes who have been so richly blessed by your contribution to our awareness of, and appreciation for, all things Camino related. I thank you for your loving service, and I bless you on your journey - wherever it may now take you.
Good to see you returning to Spain for another Camino, dear man! I look forward to one day doing the same - may it be sooner than later! MUCH love from Canada, and Buen Camino! :-)
Happy to be one of many to honour your request, simplyB. As I continue my 1st Camino trek (I’m now in Leon), I’ll carry you and your friend in my heart.
It's the part that I worry about too, Bilbo - AND, I think it's an opportunity for us to trust that all will be well, as it has been for MANY hikers/pilgrims before us! :-)
Thanks, John. I'm financially unable to choose the hotel option for all of my Camino, AND I may well treat myself to one from time to time to enjoy some privacy! :-)
Thanks SO much for each of your replies, fellow pilgrims - I greatly appreciate your insights, and I'm very glad that I "stuck my neck out" and asked my question. Blessings to all! :-)
Hi -
I'll be walking the Camino Francés (and going on to Finisterre after that) from Sept. 7th to Oct. 17th, and I have a concern... I haven't slept through the night in years. I'm hoping to always get a bottom bunk, and to sleep near a bathroom, so that I minimally disturb other sleepers in...
I'm very glad you started this conversation, Meindl - I'll be arriving in SJPdP on the last train on Sunday, Sept. 8th (it gets in at 10:08 PM), and I DON'T want to sleep in the campground!
Thanks, J F.
We don't have REI in Canada, only MEC (Mountain Equipment Co-op)...
AND, thanks to your comment, I just discovered that MEC has a summer clearance sale and a gear swap page. Much obliged! :-)
