We fly out in 36 hours.
So many of you have helped, in too many ways to count. You have listened to my fears, helped me pack (and repack and ...), held my hand, recommended equipment, offered encouragement and pulled me down from the ceiling.

I have felt the care from this community.

Now, you should know I have the forum app on my phone. Not posting on the Camino, but I know if I really need help, this community will be here for me. Thank you all for the peace of mind.

Hugs.

PS. I'll post when my Camino is finished, regardless of where / when it happens.

I am envious, you are going to have a wonderful experience. Take a deep breath, try and forget everything that you have pondered and weighed, fretted over, and second guessed, and try to live in the moment. Oh, and look after those feet.

Buen Camino

Have a wonderful time, and remember to look up at the sky when you're standing by, but down at your feet when it gets steep (edited for "steep" not step)!

I am a late September walker, so will miss most of you, but I'll be on your heels soon enough.

Buen Camino!

Buen Camino, Jo, it's been fun 'walking' with you as you planned your Camino. Know that many of us will be walking with you as you make your Way.
