We have long planned to walk the Camino in 2024, the year I turn 70. Much to my surprise this last Friday (April 21) my wife suggested we go now for a practice Camino! On Saturday we bought our packs and stuffed with about 15 pounds and went out for a 6 mile walk with the Seattle Eastside Camino group. We fly to Paris on May 1. We return from Barcelona on May 19, so this trip with be the first leg.
We will be leaving SJPP on Thursday May 4. We will walk part way to Roncesvalles, taxiing back to SJPP and then the next morning taxi back up to to spot we stopped.
I have been mostly lurking here on the forum for some time now. I have learned much here.
Although I expected to have another year to plan and collect gear I don't feel that we are grossly underprepared.
Thank you all!
I find the fact that we know we cannot reach Santiago de Compostela rather liberating. We will walk as far as makes sense to us each day. We have replaced the goal of getting it done with enjoying the experience.
See you on the Camino.
