Time of past OR future Camino
First Part Oct. 5 2018 (StJ)-Oct. 19 (Boadillo); 2nd Part May 5 (Boadilla) to May 26, 2019.
I did the first 230 miles from StJPdP in October, ending in Boadilla, and will resume Part II, arriving in Boadilla on Sunday night and stepping back on the path on Monday morning. I'm from Albany, NY, and look forward to meet great walk mates, as I did the first part.
 
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
Buen Camino Thomas! I had the best time in Boadilla last year, meeting a local farmer who showed me his spelt being ground into flour and his livestock. It was one of the best experiences I had on the Camino.
 
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.

Mine was a tad more painful--a wasp hid in the art clay I was drinking wine from and stung me on the lip. But a physician among my walk mates gave me strong anti-histamines and after 3 days I looked normal again.

I arrived in Santiago on the evening of last Thursday, went to Faro/Finistere on Friday, and flew back yesterday. My wife picked me up at JFK, we made it to Albany by 6:30pm, and I still had time to sleep-mow my jungle-like lawn. I am tired but happy.
