I am one of the lucky ones who got injured and can keep going. 10 days ago about 1km from Akerrata I slipped on the steep path and broke my arm. With my husbands help I walked the rest of the way to Pamplona. Not once did I consider it would end my Camino, but it was a huge wake up call to be on...
It made it look more gentle especially at the beginning. But we loved day 1 of our Camino check out kembercamino.blogspot.com for photos from yesterday. Perfect weather, spectacular crossing. Buen Camino!
Buen Camino and good luck to all you fellow mid-May/June walkers. I can't believe how excited we are, nearly packed, 3 sleeps to go before we leave and this time next week will have finished our first day. I look forward to our paths crossing if it is meant to be!
Hi Elizabeth, Just connecting with another kiwi - we are leaving NZ next Friday to start the Camino Francés we are only staying staying in private accommodation. When are you planning to walk?
Hi, We are starting on the 18th but walking through to Roncesvalles! See you there ELHS220. Staying in SJPdP on tthe 16/17 to prepare and get over jet-lag. Buen Camino!
Hi Eugene, Looking forward to meeting you somewhere/time on the way. We are planning a few 'rest days' so I'm sure many of the peregrinos starting after us will catch us up!
Buen Camino

PS Simon had his birthday in Feb so we can't keep celebrating it!!
