    Greetings from Annie in London

    "As the time gets closer, the more anxious I get and wonder if I've made a terrible mistake spending all this money and making all these plans because I'm sure I won't make it because my poor body is a wreck, and that I'm crazy to do this alone, and what if I get lost in the Pyrenees (or...

    Greetings from Annie in London

    Good strong life affirming positive post Annie - and don't worry about worrying, it is part of the anticipation. If you knew you could do it it wouldn't be a challenge (you can, you will). Everyone has those anxieties just before 'going over the top'. All is well. :wink:

    Running from St Jean Pied de Port to Fisterra

    Thinking about it - as you will be running. It is not uncommon to come across dropped or left items on the Camino. You might find yourself the 'lost property angel', picking up hats and water bottles and poles leaning against the odd tree and dropping them off as you pass :lol: Thank you for...

    Introducing Anna

    Introduction

    True, a good average - though the daily costs can be quite a lot less. If you live simply then you don't have to buy coffee or cold drinks or ice cream. You don't ever have to buy a meal in a cafe, nor wine. It is really simple to carry food with you - for instance, were you to carry sausage...

    Me and my Dad

    "Me and my Dad" - just that is enough to make me quite emotional. You must love him very much. You are already fine, just by your attitude. Pack light, pack light, pack light - enjoy! :wink:

    Introduction

    Diana and Chris - have a wonderful time - the time of your lives - enjoy! If you do find that you are becoming concentrated on how far you have to go and are tired then take the time to stop and look back. Where you were not so long ago will be incredibly distant! and it will empower you...

    Br. Edward - all is well - you have already chosen love and family over personal desire... your Camino will happen when it does. Now is the time to really get the weight down. You will read over and over about only taking what you need - but almost everyone packs what they think they will need...

    Planning to walk the El Camino in July/August 2011

    All is well. Whatever you plan your own Camino will be completely different from those plans ... if you don't have Spanish you will discover mime - if it is important then a translating pilgrim will appear at your shoulder .. all is well (except - weigh everything!!!!!!) :wink:

    In Father John Goodyear's Footsteps

    How absolutely wonderful! Hope you have a wonderful Camino. could I suggest that the pushchair is one of those with the large wheels as a lot of the camino is rather rough ground. :wink:

    Armchair Pilgrim

    I like your style Kenseph - way to go! :wink: I met an Irishman from the Republic last year, Dublin I think. He was wearing a kilt and a beret with a shamrock in it (plus other garments of course). Low grade pack, no designer gear, his boots seemed leather ex-army - he was very happy and...
