Because we would rather you make this discovery on your own, so you don't blame us.Why wasn't I warned?

I spent Sept. 2017 on the CF, and promised to myself: Never again!!! Insanely crowded! My last Camino!7 years ago, almost to the minute, I was sitting in this same bar in central Seville, listening to those same bells ringing for all the saints, and about to set off on my first camino.

Yes, I just noticed a few days ago that Alansyke's avatar is the same as the photo I have on my computer desktop! As you can see, there was a welcoming party as I approached.Buen camino Alan. Here's an idea. In 4 or 5 days you should be able to take a selfie of Alansykes walking through his own avatar!
The eagles. Haha! Love it!You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave...
There you go, me with one foot in Andalusia and the other in Extremadura, taken by my new best friend Pepe of the Seville amigos a few days ago. He's been through this "border" 5 times and I've been three, and it's the first time either of us have seen it dry. Sadly, I didn't have Clare's welcoming committee.Buen camino Alan. Here's an idea. In 4 or 5 days you should be able to take a selfie of Alansykes walking through his own avatar!
Me too! Seven years ago I went on my first camino celebrating my 70th birthday walking from my home on the North coast of Brittany along the coast to Irun and then on the Camino del Norte to Santiago and Finisterre - five months on the roads - and thought I had "done" Santiago. Three years later I walked the Primitivo from where it splits off the Norte near Villaviciosa which I had not dared to do on the previous occasion. And that was it - I am hooked and have been walking on one camino or another every year walking the Torres last June. Now doing the planning for 2018 and even 2019 - se Deus quiser.....
Kiwi, this brings back such memories of my Boots-n-all days...I was MamooSeven years ago.....that must be 2010. We had just returned to NZ after 15 months on the road with 8 kids and Grandpa. I was unsettled.
I spent time on the Boots-n-all forum, not too dissimilar to this one. Someone posted a folder of autumn pictures they had taken on the camino.
The rest is history.
Yes, as I remember it, one comes around a curve and there it is! The perfect scene that made me laugh with pleasure to be walking in Spain.It's one of those places where you simply have to take a photo.
