It's still six weeks until I leave New Zealand- but time is racing by, and I have a 'to do' list a mile long of things I want to cross off before I walk out my front door and head off to the local airport to start the long journey for Paris. Before I know it, it seems like I'll be 'live' from the Camino- or the Chemin in my case, as I expect to be staying mainly in France. While I have a moment though- after working hard all morning to get some of my jungle aka the garden into some semblance of pre-Camino order- I thought I would set up this thread so I can briefly post to it if I get any internet access along the way.
I have set up a new blog for this trip, Festina Lente, http://dawdlingwalks.blogspot.co.nz/ It's title is a homage really to Robert from Oz aka The Dawdler, who manages to carve out an even slower route through the landscapes and villages than I do... Like my blog last time though, I am expecting this blog might become more of a retrospective one that I will do once I have reached home, with photos etc.
My plans are rather fluid/flexible this time. My first hope is to walk from Cluny to Le-Puy-en-Velay (where I started last time), a distance of just over 300km. But I have been reliably informed this route is more hilly, solitary and has less accommodation than where I have walked before from south of Le Puy- so I will see how I go. When/if I reach Le Puy, I will then decide whether to go to Geneva and walk back to Le Puy from there, or whether I will re-walk some of the Le Puy route. Time will tell...
