    Bucket List - What we must plan to not miss on the Way?

    I too abandoned all plans except for music. I lived in the present taking in the sights, sounds, tastes, touches and smells of the Camino. We had many "Camino" moments totally unexpected and things that could never be planned for. So good to let these special moments unfold. Buen Camino!

    Camino scrapbbok- how did you store, display, house Camino photos etc

    Great ideas for photos etc. The 4 of us have pooled our photos using Google. Soon I'll be making a composite photo book for us all. For the wonderful concrete memories: Compestela, credencial, and shell I'll be buying a shadow box to display them for eternity. Pinterest had many to look at.

    Stressed over time between flights

    Oh and I took no extra stuff. So much singing and so many new friends. It's hard not to say buen Camino to everyone you see with a backpack

    Stressed over time between flights

    So just to let you know, since I changed my flight, we were rested when we started in Sarria. We agreed that we would have been exhausted already. Had a wonderful time in London on our extra day. Also, the Camino was amazing. I know why people do it again and again and again!

    What do you do when you're not walking?

    Q Quilt, sing, play ukulele, surf the net, cook meals, walk the dog, and hang out with family and friends.

    Journaling on the Camino

    Hi all! Our journey begins in 3 days! We're very excited! My dear sister gave me a beautiful albeit heavy journal and suggestions as to what to write as my birthday gift. What a beautiful gift! Today I felt curious about what others take and what others find useful to write. Please share!

    Packing list: October 100km walk

    You are the first person I've read who recommends filtering the water from the fountains. Is this because of experience or just as a precaution?

    Packing list: October 100km walk

    Weighed bottle from store (w/o water) and it saves you a good 30-50g over a 400 ml nalgene. I'm using the bought refilled bottle as my back up.

    Sarria to Santiago an honest account from a first time pilgrim

    Thanks for your lovely account. I love your comment "take a leaf out of the Camino book". I think that helps make any journey that much better. I can't wait! 25 days til we fly!

    Stressed over time between flights

    Thanks everyone for all of your ideas and suggestions. One of the reasons I am walking the Camino is to reduce the stress in my life. As I was out on one of my training walks, or was it when I couldn't sleep (!) I came up with the idea of changing our flight from Ottawa to London to a day...

    Stressed over time between flights

    Thanks John - not that I'm thankful for your message! We do have travel insurance so I'll read up on that. Next flight with Iberia has a 1 hr layover in Barcelona. What are the chances of meeting that?!
