Surprise on the Camino!

Camino de Santiago Frances 2016
My sister and brother-in-law have been on the famous Camino de Santiago 500 mile hike for a couple of weeks and I surprise them on the trail just outside of Leon, Spain. Didn't tell anybody except a few members of my family. Flew to Madrid from a meeting I had in Denmark, took a train to Leon and a taxi here. I'll hike with them for a week or so. Looking forward to the adventure...ready or not!
