    Hello Tia Valeria: Thanks for the link. It worked out nicely between you and your husband. We wouldn't have much of an issue walking together, but more where we would sleep. I like the idea of the albergues, but my husband ... not so much. Anyway, we have decided that this first camino will be...

    Hi Tyrrek: Thanks for your words of wisdom! I may have to re-think this whole idea of meeting my husband. I'll let it slide until closer to departure time. Yes, a wonderful dilemma to have, a new gandbaby on the way! Buen Camino!

    End of Sept/October embark on Camino Frances

    Another idea could be to FEDEX your tube with poles etc. to SJPdP??? What address should be used?

    End of Sept/October embark on Camino Frances

    Julie, I love that idea!! I will plan on checking my poles, knife and whatever else needs to be checked. My boots will be on my feet for sure. I have picked out my Deuter 30L backpack, it fits really well. I think that size will be cabin size (I hope!). Socks is next and then I will start...

    End of Sept/October embark on Camino Frances

    Welcome to this great Forum. I too will start from SJPdP on Sept. 26. I will fly from Canada on Sept. 23. I am checking on this site all the time to find answers to a lot of my questions. So far so good! One question I have not been able to figure out is: If I check my backpack as baggage, what...

    Walking in October 2012

    I totally agree, super site and incredibly good people who so patiently answer all the posts and questions! I too will be starting my novice walk on September 26/12.

    Hello!

    Jenny, thanks for your reply. I heard about the Camino about 5 or 6 years ago and immediately knew I wanted to have that experience, but, as you well know, life gets in the way and when my good friend told me last fall that her daughter was walking the Camino, it hit me like a ton of bricks...

    Hello!

    Hi Johnnywalker: I appreciate your reply and I think I will let the Camino decide where I will sleep every night. I have read a lot of older posts and although I learned a lot, it is going to be "MY" walk and I will follow my gut (after the yellow signs, of course!) Ellen

    Hello!

    Hi Jenny: For now my plan is to leave late Sept, if my plans change, I will definitely let you know! Are you walking solo? Tell me a a bit about yourself? Ellen

    Hello!

    Thanks for the words of wisdom falcon269, truly appreciated. I have read so many posts on so many different subjects, that I have decided to just DO IT! I have ordered John Brierley's book and I'm sure that also will give me a lot of answers. I hesitate to ask too many questions on this forum...

    Hello!

    Thanks Rob, I plan to do just that! I must say though, that after reading several posts I am doing my best not to get cold feet!! Ellen

    Hello!

    Hi all! My name is Ellen, I am 66 and I live in Alberta, Canada. I plan to kick El Camino off my Bucket List and do the walk solo in Sept-Oct/2012. This site has already given me a lot of valuable information and I look forward to gaining my knowledge in the next 6 months!
