    Anyone walking in March?

    and that plan has changed, and will probably change again. But as of now, only travelling from Leon. But it will be fun, never the less.

    A growing concern.

    i agree @tomnorth. Wild Andy must be teetering on 'incurable'. I suggest we stow a rock or two in his backpack - that'll make him doubt himself, and that might just jog a synapse or two and throw him out of the cycle. Or at least give him something else to talk about, viz "Who the heck put these...

    A growing concern.

    @andywild - and there it is - a great plan Wild Andy - captive audiences. I shall adhere to it. I'll stick like glue. Or porridge.

    A growing concern.

    @andywild - it's all out now, and I blame you. I'd kept it to myself for so long I had to rush into closets when someone asked me about my plans for this year. The darkness was helpful, but often there'd be tapping on the door and voices asking me why I was mumbling, which made the situation...

    What have I forgotten?

    You should see the rest of my outfit, Kanga! Salmon ballgown, puce boa and maroon fascinator. To die for. (Or because of.) My wife is jealous. :)

    What have I forgotten?

    @VNwalking Wild Andy definitely is entertaining the crowd. I'm just holding out the hat and collecting the coins while he's busy.

    What have I forgotten?

    Iriebabel - good luck young turtle; may your cyber parts assist you to leap those tall buildings with all the rooms you're looking for :) We shall watch you fly by and we shall wave regally while enjoying the scenery. To all the others - Waka, Robo, VNWalking - thanks for the encouragement...

    What have I forgotten?

    After six years of planning, I'm ready and there's just over a week to go before I hear the announcement "Will the last passenger to Madrid PLEASE board at gate..." So what have I forgotten? I've fine-combed the forum for hints, tips, wise advice (and a few laughs) and have all the right gear...

    Leon to Santiago

    My teenage son and I will depart Leon on 8 April (for our first Camino - an adventure, in many ways - but something I've been planning for about six years). You will probably be ahead of us by a few days, and we'll probably travel slower than others around us, but we'll be travelling with you in...

    Anyone walking in March?

    Leaving SJPP March 24th. Travelling to Leon, then a quick dash away to Madrid to pick up my teenage son, then back to walk the rest of the way + Finnisterre

    March/April on the Camino Frances

    I believe that is quite a suitable response, @Peter Knezevich. Or it will be when the champers is finished. We'll look for you on the path. Date of departure from St Jean may be brought forward to the 21st, though - travel arrangements are there to trip up the unwary.

    March/April on the Camino Frances

    Not experienced, but leaving SJPdP on 24th March 2018. Preparing for the whole kit and kaboodle of weather conditions. Not sure my butler will be able to carry the Champagne without spilling it, if it snows, but at least the champus will be chilled, or the very least one can but hope.

    If I put it in writing, I'll be committed.

    @dougfitz. I've seen your comments over the past few years on many different topics, and your suggestions are always to the point and helpful. Thanks, I'll discard my secret hope and let the Camino do what it will. Thanks also for the notes re Google. Good ideas about the phrases. I'll do...

    If I put it in writing, I'll be committed.

    Ola Peregrinos todos. After five years of preparation and setbacks, I'm "all set" in my mind for a March 2018 launch from St Jean Pied de Port. The good thing about the delays - been practicing my Spanish (oh how I wish I was gifted at languages!) and I conned a friend into going. The bad...
