Hi all,
Since returning from our last family camino in 2015 we have been dreaming of returning. I’m so thrilled to share that we are now planning a return camino in 2020. We also have a different family composition now, with another new baby in the mix, making it 6 children now ranging from 1 year old to 20 years old. My eldest will celebrate her 21st somewhere around Logroño (after celebrating her 16th in El Burgo Ranero).

We are planning on getting a mini foldable stroller this time to partner with our carrier for our youngest.

So excited to share this news with the community!

Hi Paul! I can see your exitement - my children are offering me a family camino for my 80th birthday next year! At Easter we will start from Mondoñedo to Santiago. We, that is my three children with their spouses and all seven grandchildren (7 - 19).

I am sizzling with the pleasure of expectation, if you see what I mean!

Buen camino!

To the family with six childrem...amazing!
To the 80 year old gal and family...super amazing!
Buen Camino to all of you!

I wonder what Paul and his family will be hatching when he gets to 80. My first camino was at 70. You have so much more time ahead of you, Paul! Make the most of it!
 
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.
I am so impressed. I (at 63) am planning my first Camino. I have six children but the thought of keeping track of them and the grandchildren would make this a lot more daunting. Hats off to both Paul and Pelerine.
Buen camino
 
How utterly fabulous. I love that walking is something that can be done with a wide range of ages.
