Praise Lord!

I posted a thread in April about the issues in obtaining a Schengen visa for South African citizens living abroad wanting to walk the Camino.
I am great full to report that I have just received my passports back with the visas. Thank you to Pam from confraternity of St James SA and Austin Cooke from Canadian company of pilgrims for all their guidance help and support
See you all on the Camino in July

Re: Praise Lord!

The Camino is a multitude of little miracles.
Each seems like just a coincedence, but when you add them all together, it seems there is a greater plan.

Some of the little miracles on the Camino happen when you are cold, wet, tired and hungry. Those are the best ones of them all.

Buen Camino,
David, Victoria, Canada.

Thank you David, your kind words will serve as a reminder to expect and recognize the miracles when they happen

Having gone through the Schengen visa process for myself, our family, and our 4 colleagues I know exactly what you've been through - so CONGRATULATIONS from the bottom of my heart! Good job doing things legally, and having the patience to wade through the myriad of documents and paperwork. It is no easy task. Enjoy all the planning for your Camino!

I will tell Austin tomorrow when I see him at breakfast--- I know that he was active with the Spanish Embassy and the South African High Commission, who were all very helpful.
