Congrats on completing your first Camino. So much to unpack, all the could haves, should haves, would haves, I'm sure. Most important thing is you made it and have memories to take along. Tomorrow will come soon enough so enjoy today as best as you can, Peregrino!
Last winter on my first Camino I managed to relatively stay solitary until Los Arcos, then Najera, then Grañon. I heard about this camino family talk but I actually wanted to see how far I could go on my own. But a funny thing happened, I kept running into the same people. I softened my view...
Good to hear you made it @LongRun64! With all you had to go through, it's an extraordinary achievement. Wouldn't surprise me if somehow little things along the Camino reminded you of your mother. Things we don't often associate but maybe looking back like an ever constant presence. Again...
