    Embarrassing moments

    On my first Camino with my granddaughter, we used to stop each afternoon and have our Cervezas. She would order them each day speaking Spanish. And we must’ve been about halfway through and on this day she told me “Nana, it’s time for you to order the cervezas.” I asked what I had to say and she...

    What happened to Forum member Alexwalker?

    I wish I could cross paths with you! I did my first Camino at the age of 76 and I keep telling myself each time I return that "I'd rather be seen than viewed"! Keep those feet marching! Hope to do one this year and for an old lady at 85, I am keeping my fingers crossed! Buen Camino!
