2017-Sarria to Santiago and Lires to Finisterre
Leaving Thursday for a Monday (May 8th) launch from Sarria to Santiago and then a day hike from Muxia to Finisterre. Our party of three is now a party of two. One of our threesome had to back out yesterday because of a terminal recurrence of his mother's cancer. We would appreciate your thoughts and prayers for James and his mother. Hoping to cross paths with some of you on the Camino! I appreciate all the great posts that have helped me prepare properly for this adventure!
