    Camino Portugues

    I walked the last 100 kms+ from Sarria to Santiago in 2010 (the last Holy Year I think?). For the others it is their first. We are all 65 years + and are taking the easy approach by staying in hotels. It is a little awkward getting to a suitable starting point on the various Caminos from...
