you know when you reach contentment, the answers are there

for unknown reasons, my retreat did not happen but I had a wonderful peaceful emotional day releasing my brother´s ashes to the wind, the earth, and the sea

and I have done all I set out to do. I found a way to changes flights etc with the least pain and certainly cheaper than playing tourist or adding another camino. and I decided it was ok to be done for now. Adding a camino rather than wanting to do one is not healthy either
so thank you my friends
I will be watching the forum as more settles and filters as the days pass
I dont want to slip into the jet stream and lose the moments you and the camino have given me

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

Have a nice trip home!
 
Wishing you a gentle journey home, Nanc.

So glad that you travel back with a full heart and contented soul and a mind at peace with your Camino for all the right reasons.

Slip back here when you're ready and let us know how you're settled back.

Go well.

Woops sorry Ivar my first reply went to you (thank you for the help with Correos today. )
And, yes, Alex, they got the Compostela in vicario for my brother, but added it to the paper with my name still the original one.

So thank you for telling me how to do this. AND, you've had a ripple effect as another woman at an adjacent station heard my conversation and asked to have her deceased husband's name added!

Ivar told me that you and he had a chance to talk last week. It is a small world we live in. I am blessed.
(A fantastic massage by Miguel in Santiago makes thatdouble blessed!)
