    Asking for Prayers please

    God bless, Annie. Be kind to yourself - and remember the good times, for they'll surely come again.

    table etiquette

    The behaviours commented on here range from disgusting to highly amusing. But I'm glad I'll be walking in the VDLP, cos it seems most of the selfish behaviour occurs on the Camino Frances. (Or am I wrong?)

    table etiquette

    Wow! I'm glad to have stumbled on this thread. It seems I'll have to learn to bite my tongue quite a lot if that's normal behaviour. Although maybe the VDLP doesn't see as many freeloaders? Chacharm your post reminds me about all the 'born-agains' I've encountered at various points. They can...

    A road paved with scallop shells must surely be a sign?

    Just to say .. for the benefit of anyone subscribed to this thread - Jamilla and I didn't make it to the Camino this year. She shed a wheel on our 'training walk' in April and we had to go back to the drawing board. Now she's equipped with wheelchair wheels and is much better/stronger, but one...

    A road paved with scallop shells must surely be a sign?

    Ah well, Mike - better than the Pyrenees, for sure :D But I'm planning a rest day at least once a week ('six days shalt thou labour ...') and for sure we'll have our hat on head and water 'on tap'. While I loved the Alhambra, sometimes the anticipation and build-up makes the place itself less...

    LIVE from the Camino Is this normal?

    Wow! An up-til-now solitary madwoman, I think I've found my community at last. :D:D:D Looking forward to my (first?) Camino, starting out from Sevilla with Jamilla my hand-made donkey carrying my bag, beginning in less than three weeks.

    LIVE from the Camino A fork in the road on my camino

    Leaningforward, your story moved me (and I'm sure many others) to tears. Thank you for sharing it with us - so inspirational, so humbling. The blessings that are offered when we choose the difficult path are like the sun coming through clouds after rain; that wonderful light that you can only...

    My Camino pal asking for a Guide man! Mis compañeras de camino quieren un guía para el camino!

    People keep asking me - "Are you doing it alone ?" And I keep explaining to them that everyone does their Camino alone, even if they walk with others. I also tell them that, although the people who first asked to come with me have now dropped out, I had made it very clear to them that during...

    A road paved with scallop shells must surely be a sign?

    You'll probably catch us up, Angela. Maybe around Salamanca? Buen Camino.

    A road paved with scallop shells must surely be a sign?

    I’ve always had a hankering to see the Alhambra, so last year I decided to visit Spain for the first time. But just going to Granada for a few days seemed silly, so I made a plan to see some of the cities of Andalusia, to put the Alhambra in context. With Spain on my mind, and Zumba classes...
