Maria, nice quote from Ernest Hemingway. You may already know this... a hotel in Burguete apparently served as his residence when he went on fishing trips from Pamplona. Buen Camino!
Yeah, I have become a repeat Camino pilgrim. I commence the Camino Portugues in 2 weeks time. I can't wait!

Cheers!
Hi Dead Fred,
I'm glad to see that you are back. I remember last year on the Class of 2014 thread. You organised a list of forum members who would commence in August and September. The list just grew bigger and bigger as the dates came closer. Haha!

Hi Jola,
Just a note to say Buen camino! I started my pilgrimage on 25th August as well (last year) from SJPDP to Santiago I am sure you would enjoy the adventure and camaraderie with the other pilgrims. ..And be prepared to a journey of reflection and self discovery as well.

Buen Camino!
Sleepless in Bayonne. After almost 2 days of travel..here I am in a hotel near the river in Bayonne still nursing jetlag or whatever it is... could be excitement or something. 2 am already and I'm still awake. Looking forward to the train and bus ride to SJPdP later today.
Buen Camino a todos!
