Hey all you may babies worry not you are well on your way to a wonderufl experience!!
I began my camino on my 11 in st palais, two days before st jean pied du port. I have been keeping a few notes for your all in case they are helpful. Feel free to take or leave them, but perhaps they will...
MAY BABIES!
I myself am now off...my plane leaves in 3 hours. My plan is now offically to start in San Paliais.
You can link to my blog through my website

I will also try to post things here in the forum!
Best wishes to all the other May June July and beyond...
seems to me a busy camino is a wonderful opportunity to practice 'walking your walk'/'being who you want to be'/'doing your thing' amids others and different engergies. which is where we all go when we leave the camino, return home, to work etc.
in other words, it is easier to be loving...
i meant albergue not hostel...you gave the address for a place you reccommended and listed that website but it's the same addy for the maps i can't find. and i didn't see accommodation either.
???

and xm, i went to
aucoeurduchemin.org but didn't see hotel info on there.

LaurenE it looks like I am now taking the same route you are from Stanstead. What date are you going exactly? I arrive in London on May 9th in the morning.
Also I keep going to the website below but can't find the 2 page map of the whole trail. It might just be the jitters that are setting...
wow lilian! so good to hear from you!! and that you are having a marvelous journey. thank you for taking the time to share the conditions and your experiences. i am packing myself at this very minute, so your commentary was priceless!
i haven't heard from eleanor , though i don't know...

good tip Br David. haven't stood in front of a mirror yet, but have been to see physical theraptists over the year and have been doing exercises. they mentioned how important your "core" (back & abs) are for walking, contraintuitive as it may seem. so, for anyone else with leg/knee/ankle...
Hey Br David,
Si senor, I will make a holga album... If indeed I take my camera(s)! I just posted how Brierly suggests not taking one at all, and I think he is certainly talking to people like myself who get to a beautiful place and rush to 'save' the moment instead of savor it. but my...
Hey Lora!
I had a similar question regarding my supplments (which would be really hard to find in spain). my plan is to post them to myself using the post resesante thing (i need to learn how to spell that). bascially you go to a post office and get a box (they have them there, all different...
just a thought about warmth (for lauren and anyone else like us who are ALWAYS COLD)...
i am considering a pair of leggings instead of thermal underwear. they can be layered under pants, or if need be worn as is so they're a little more versatile and proabably about the same weight.
i'm...
I second the comment--
[No "garrulous rambling," u'd be surprised how much posts like urs help. ]
You convinced me that rain pants are a very good idea indeed! My poncho will surely drip as you mentioned (no rain yet to try it out in) and now something else is settled. I am also debating...
thanks sil!
any suggestions on the le pue route, by any chance? i am flying into geneva so that will be a little more en route (i think?) and i alraedy have the csj book for that route too. sjean will be simpliest starting point, and as time grows closer i am considering that too, but i like...
