Camino Fraces starting August 15th - Finished September 11th
I sit here at work. my wife and I are finally home from our Camino/UK trip. I continually cycle through the hundreds of photos and people we met along the way. There was so much and I seem to remember every step. It feels like it happened yesterday, but also like it was last year.

We had originally planned on 15-20k per day, but ended up closer to 25-30k per day to finish early and have more time for Ireland and Scotland. We pushed ourselves to the brink both physically and emotionally. We argued and loved (sometimes in the same day).

The one thing I take away from the amazing experience is the love I have for my wife truly is never ending. She amazes me with everything she's been through and how hard she still fights. The joy of life she has for all new experiences. The laughter when she enjoys something new and the smirk when I sneak a photo.

We probably won't be able to do this again and I'm so glad we just went.

Now... back to try and pay for all the fun. Back to work 👍
