    Asking for Prayers please

    So, one reason I didn't walk the Camino this year was because of my ankle. But there was also a nagging feeling that I should not go, and I just couldn't put my finger on it. Well, now I know. My younger brother has been diagnosed with end stage liver disease. He is on hospice and we've...

    Pre camino blues

    I often get a last minute sadness before going away . I think its a combination of excitement for what's to come combined with the fatigue of waiting . I tell myself I can always turn around and head home if I really want to- but it's never happened . The nervous feelings vanish once I'm on the...

    Why are you walking so slow, or did you train for this?

    I haven't walked my Camino yet, but I often am asked why I walk so slowly . I have one of those invisible impairments, and I always reply ( because it's true ) " I'm cherishing. "

    LIVE from the Camino El Camino on a Segway?

    That's sad, Tyrek- did he take it on the dales to try out rough terrain when he was working on the prototype? I have family in Harrogate.

    LIVE from the Camino El Camino on a Segway?

    I have to ask : What kind of motorised vehicles are we talking about ? And just a thought, but a Segway fitted with a hovercraft component for the rough spots might work....and a jet pack for those boring stretches :-)

    Myths of the Camino...

    The Church in Santiago must go through a lot of money on upkeep with so many feet passing through. But I read it cost €800 if you wanted it to swing on an unscheduled day. Each person on the rope has to be paid.

    Myths of the Camino...

    At the beginning of the summer the cathedral announced that this year the botafumiero would be swung every Friday evening Mass. Their office would be the place to find out on which other feast days and special occasions you could also see it.

    Wendy,even though there are many good reasons why your daughter is temporarily out of touch,its natural to be worried about her. Try to remember she is in a blessed place, and no matter what she is doing, your girl is in Gods Hands. Blessings!

    March or April?

    Thank you for the links and info. Would you do the Portugese again? I may still do the Frances, moving it up to maybe 2016, but yes, this is a wonderful opportunity, and I am very grateful for it. Blessings! I would think doing any of the Caminos backwards would be confusing. Most days I have...
