The Camino Space-time continuum

[Pieces]

Just returned from 3 weeks on the Camino Frances and it feels like I never left my house...

I look at the pictures my friends are uploading on facebook and think that I must have seen that too...

But I don't remember...

While I was there it felt as if I had no other life and as if I had never been anywhere else...

There were so many ants on the trail, walking single file carrying their burdens...

Sometimes I wondered what the camino would look like from outer space...

On monday i go back to work...

It's reasonable to assume that many Camino walkers had similar experiences. I for one did, which is why I will start (once again) the CF in a few months time and go all the way....

Hope you had a great Camino Pieces.

On return from my last Camino I realised that I'd forgotten to put an old bottle of milk in the outside bin, and I think it had festered to the point of explosion while I was away. It didn't smell nice, but at least I knew I was back home.

Buen Camino!

You should have seen the wilderness of my Central American garden when I returned last time :lol: It certainly was "back to work on Monday" :|

Back to work blues!! I know the feeling, it's been a year since my 1st Camino but I have had daily flash backs ever since. I heard before that the Camino can be addictive and I thought how could walking 100s of Km be addictive? But here I am planning my 2nd Camino :lol:

I hope your camino was excellent in every where. The juxtaposition you highlight shows how bizarre our "normal" daily routine actually is, how weird our humdrum montone existance is compared to the multicoloured variety that we can otherwise experience on the camino as we get back in touch with nature and ourselves.
