Doing: C. Levante
A week ago I printed out 373 pages of Camino diary (from CF) with a lots of pictures and sent it as a "book" to my grandmother.
Yesterday I called her to hear if she had received it. And yes she had and she was deeply involved in my walking. She had read the first 12 days during the weekend.
When I was in Burgos I visited the cathedral and wrote that I thought of my grandmother while sitting there. She read that and had almost forgot that the text was written by my and thought "how sweet she is thinking of her grannie" and then realised "but hey that is me". She is funny.
She is 82 years old and have heart problems and some other age related diseases and knows that she will never be able to walk the Camino. So it was a pleasure to give her the opportunity to follow mine via text and pictures.
