I walked into Santiago on June 22, 2017, after leaving SJPDP on May 18,2017. I made over 2000 photos along the way. I came back to the USA on June 28 and started a two week process of digesting what I had done and looking at the photos. I made a serious mistake. I took pictures of mountains, bridges, buildings, rivers, etc. I have less that 20 photos of people. For me, the most memorable part of the Camino is the people that I met. Most of them are not in any photos and there are many that I remember well but cannot recall their names. If/when I do this again I will try to photograph more people and write down their names because they are more important that the landscape.
On my 5th night, at Azqueta, I met 4 people that I wish I could contact. Angela and her husband, Federico, live on Majorca. Federico said that he made the best piella in the world. I would like to invite him to Atlanta so that I could see if he was right. They are wonderful people but I have not seen them since Logrono. There was a young lady (30) , I think from Sweden, I believe her name is Stephanie (not sure about spelling) I last saw her in Leon where she told me she had lost a day from being sick and intended to go a little slower. I would like to know that she finished and that she is well. The 4th was a younger lady from Germany, Ronja. I last saw her two days out from Santiago. I would like to know if she had heard from the other Germans that were with her part of the way.
Leaving Pamplona, I walked about 20 minutes with a young lady from Scotland (I believe). I had a hard time with her name but she offered me some nutella at Zariguiegui, I last saw her at Torres del Rio. There was Hannah that I met in the airport in Madrid and only saw one more time in Leon. There were many others.
Of course, there were a few that I remember better because I made pictures and/or FB friends. Tim Quigley, Ireland, plant to finish his camino in October. There were 3 Texans, who became 4 Texans and later became many more Texans. Leighton and Renee were with me for the day trip to the end of the earth. A couple from Ireland, Nigel and Bernnie, were last seen walking past SDC. There was Alex, a young man from Germany, who was last seen enjoying Tapas in SDC. Pauline from Australia, found me on Facebook through another pilgrim.
There were many more. Please don't make the mistake that I made. There wonderful people will not be around forever. I wish that I had given my contact info to more people.
If you know any of the people mentioned, please tell them that I would like to contact them. If you were on the Camino Frances in May and June and saw an old man named Ed from Atlanta, Georgia, USA, please contact me. People are more important than mountains and bridges.

Yes thank you for this advice, I start my walk next month and will have to try to rembeer to take photos of the people we meet.
As I lie on my bunk in Uterga, I hear your pain Eddie. However, maybe four years from now you will get a surprise. Four years ago I was on duty in Zabaldika, welcoming pilgrims. This morning one of those pilgrims, Tomer from Jerusalem, caught up with me on way up to El Perdon. Had I begun three minutes later... so we had a very friendly and wide-ranging conversation as far as Zariquiegui where we parted company. This time, a photo... So you are dead right: snap away!I walked into Santiago on June 22, 2017, after leaving SJPDP on May 18,2017. I made over 2000 photos along the way.

It is so weird that you posted this as just the other day I was going through my photos of my first 2 Caminos. And I deleted a boatload of photos of basically the same fields, vineyards, hills of Galicia, open spaces of the Meseta, farm houses in France, there wereI walked into Santiago on June 22, 2017, after leaving SJPDP on May 18,2017.
