If you can let us know when you are going to arrive in Santiago......we'll have a piper waiting to serenade you into the square (I tried to block book the 5000 pipers Sil referred to but someone else had got in ahead of me and they're now on route to a little place outside Sahagun I think it begins with M......! :lol:

Y'know, I'm enjoying 30+ degrees in Goa with palm trees and all that, but reading posts like this makes me pine a bit for a good helping of Camino....!

Happy New Year, Johnnie Walker! Laurie

Hi Johnnie, fae a very cold and snowy Markinch.
I am with you in spirit (last night it was "Oban").
Over my years of wandering I have often pondered on why some enterprising soul hasn't invented dehydrated whisky for folks like us.
Stay strong and enjoy yourself.
Yours Aye
Dael

Hello Johnny,

I have just been reading your blog and have seen the video.
Beautifull! Have you ever saw so much snow as this time? And what will be your next adventure?
I enjoyed it.
Glad you arrived to santiago safe.

many greetings from Holland

Lovely, Johnny, lovely!

Outstanding blog, johnny! I can see you walking up the Way through all that snow. The journalist's objectives seem to fit most of them, only seeking the bad. It is a shame that they don't report on the good things. You handled that situation with great aplomb.

You continue to inspire me. Thank you.

what a great movie and music. From who is the music ? Can you give the name and title of the cd ?

 

[JohnnieWalker]

Thanks.

The music is by the ChoirBoys - The Carols Album.
