I always hear what sounds like "Well Camino". Then I see it written Buen Camino. How do I pronouce it correctly? Also, what are other well wishing, greetings or words that are used much on the Camino?
Thanks!
As I stated on Franco American day June 24, France is America's first and oldest friend. All day and night long, France's name has been on our lips. Not anything useful to report in this post. Just to let Parisians know, we love you and wish you strength and peace.
Okay. I just did 1 km with just 10 lbs of weight (could only find two hand weights) in 14mins 34 secs. Rough estimates for right now would be 4km's an hour, 20 km for five hours of walking. Today's date is 10/07/15. Next goal is to get it up to 20 lbs but keep my time. I will give myself through...

Some wonderful people have offered loans of their stuff or to help me get the right kit. I'm getting excellent advice. :) I'm also using my current back...
I did see it, but I think I was at work at the time and could not reply.
Wow! That's really thoughtful of you. Once I figure out what I truly need, I'm taking you up on that offer sir!
I really am getting the message that the tent is really not needed and may be more of a burden. Plus the fact that I have to use a cpap. It's really becoming obvious that tent sleeping is just not feasible. Like the @vgen5122 said , buy some earplugs!
That would be kind of fun to leave something baked with a <3 drawn on it. Lol. I would like to leave heart shaped cookies behind for pilgrims. "that chantal person has been here" ;)
Thanks all for the advice. I don't want to carry my normal debit card with me. I wanted to have my account which is paying all my normal payments for bills at home left out it. I was trying to avoid any extra fees or hidden fees that maybe only the experienced peregrinos know about. And I...
