    How do you feel when you finish a camino?

    I have walked into Santiago 4 times now, from different routes. SdC feels like an old friend and I am always happy to arrive.

    Hey Don, I am sorry to hear about your health issues, I hope you can beat the hell out of whatever is going on. I am 67 and the end of my Camino days are on the horizon, hoping to get in another one this year, one year at a time. I'm not sure how I will feel when the time comes to hang up the...

    I think I'm losing it

    A few years back a friend and I were walking the West Highland Way and got rained out, I mean rained out. So, we moved to the Hadrian's Wall trail, loved it. And yes, it keeps you fit, including the daily training walk at home (more obsession) haha. Buen Camino

    I think I'm losing it

    The trail goes through the Annapolis Valley, a rich soil and sun area, great growing conditions, hence the trail name. You are right on with your research Tom, the communities have done a great job maintaining within their communities, probably some gov't funding over the years, mostly used for...

    I think I'm losing it

    Thanks Tom, I'm going to give that some consideration. There is a trail that has my curiosity, I've walked part of it. It's called The Harvest Moon Trail, a 110 km old railbed that links the town of Annapolis Royal (first European settlement in North America, 1605) to the town of Grand Pre...
