So sorry to hear that @Jetgirl ! Praying for your speedy recovery! Remember the Camino is always there for you and any delay/bump in the road has a reason. Buen Camino, SY
 
My start date as well. Hoping to stay in Orisson weather permitting.

I should have known better. Another delay because of upcoming and totally unexpected mastectomy. Thank goodness for mammograms. We are fated not to do this next Camino. I can barely bring myself to read the forum these days because I am so distressed. Maybe in autumn. Please God.

Ok thank you for the info. I am starting the Camino on April 16, 2016 but not sure where I'm starting yet because I only have 24 days, maybe Estella or Burgos? Please add me to this list :)
Thank you,

Your Listed :) ... I put your starting place as TBD, Let me know when you decide . My first thought would be Logrono , but everything depends on how fast or how capable you are physically. In 2014 I only had 32days , I decided to start in St Jean as I knew I wasn't going to be able to reach Santiago de Compostela in that time frame so I decided to enjoy the trek and not fret over "getting there" but rather enjoy " being there"

Hi DeadFred, could you please amend my start date of the 4/4/2016 to the 5/4/2016. Starting 1 day later and have a girlfriend joining me for the walk. Not too long now. Yay.

I'm starting my 2nd Camino on June 19 from Astorga to Santiago. Unfortunately I could not get the necessary vacation days to do it completely but it will be nice as well as my wife and my two sons are doing it with me.

By the way, my son Lucas Curssi Sixto is starting to walk on May 28th from St Jean Pied de Port and he will meet us in Astorga.

Blessings, Orlando

Join our full-service guided tour of the Basque Country and let us pamper you!
May 22 - from St Jean, possibly Pamplona. I walked from St Jean to Estrella, and then from Burgos to Castrojeriz in 2009. I couldn't find shoes my size in Estrella or in Santander so flew to London thinking I had to abandon. then flew back to Santander and bussed to Burgos before abandoning 2 days later with stress fractures in my feet. I learned a lot from that trip and have some unfinished business to do.

Hi mate, What sort of shoes / inserts did you take with you? Buen Camino.
 
Hi mate, What sort of shoes / inserts did you take with you? Buen Camino.

It was the same pair of shoes that I used for both Everest Base Camp and Annapurna circuit. The thing is they ended up in the water on the last day. it was then a year before I wore them again and I think the cushioning wasn't great anymore. No inserts used. The problem was also the 18kg bag I was carrying during the walk. I'm a size Euro 48 boot and I couldn't locate them. Bag will be much lighter this time and my shoes sorted out so should hopefully have no issues this time.

Thanks for your reply. Buen Camino
