Well, the time has come. Tomorrow I fly to Spain to begin a massive adventure. From Barcelona I'll make my way up to St Jean Pied de Port, where my long awaited (6 years) camino starts. I've read so much on this forum, I almost feel like I've done it, yet I know it'll still be nothing like I imagined. I hope I've prepared enough, but like childbirth, when the time comes, you have no choice but to go through with it, and I've had that experience 3 times!
Thank you so much to all those who have contributed words of wisdom, humour and encouragement on this forum. One recent thread tells me I need to buy an Altus raincoat-poncho in Spain. Would I find one in Barcelona? Thanks also to Ivar, I hope to meet up one day in Santiago.
Buen camino to all those other travellers,
Brenda (from Ballarat, Australia)
