    Canadian hoping to start sept. 1 2011

    Maggie--I walked for the first time in May/June this year and had a wonderful experience. I'm from the States but my best and dearest walking companions were Canadians. I, too, love Joyce Rupp's book and am just re-reading it for a study in our church. I am glad to tell you that I found the...

    Who will I meet out there? May, June 2011, Nervous.

    Corina-- I made a similar post so I know exactly how you are feeling about being lonely. I start May 11 from SJPP--the Pyrenees scare me, too, so I'm staying overnight in Orisson. I hope we meet up. As for your other anxieties, I haven't worried about missing a train, though I have been...

    Misc pointers for a newbie?

    Ann-- I'm a newbie, too, also starting in in about 7 weeks. May 11 from SJPP. Since I'm a slow walker (staying at Orisson the first night) we may well cross paths. I hope so. I've been brushing up on my ancient high school Spanish. I graduated in 1969, so you do the math. But my high...

    Camino Frances my 50th birthday present to myself

    Sue--I'm doing my first Camino this year as well, leaving SJPP May 11 so we may cross paths. It is, among other things, a celebration of my 60th birthday. What a wonderful way to age...we aren't just getting older, we are getting stronger and wise, I hope. Rene Omaha, NE

    Anne-Marie & Lydia-- I will be walking beginning around May 9, starting probably from SJPP unless I decide the Pyrenees are just too terrifying and start from Pamplona. I also have all of May and June, such a blessing and for once in my life I plan NOT to be in a rush. I hope we cross paths...

    Class of 2011

    Karin-- Yes, I know what you mean about pushing yourself to do the Pyrenees--it would be something to do it in the summer I turn 60. I foresee many hours on the stair climber at the Y to get in shape for them--not many real hills here in Omaha to train on. And yes, I will be relying on the...

    Class of 2011

    Hi-- I'm Renee from Omaha, Nebraska, and plan to walk El Camino Frances in May and June of 2011, starting in either Roncesvalles or SJPP. (The elevation gain from SJPP to Roncesvalles scares me to death!) I'll be walking alone except for the last week, when my husband plans to join me. I've...
