This year my wife and I were on the Camino Portuguese, but I think this is relevant to any route. We stopped at a cafe, where a tour group was resting. We got into conversation with members of the group, and stated that we had done several Camino's. Their response was, "Well, we don't have time for that." I got the impression they thought my travels along the Camino's were frivolous. I have always been under the impression that "time" was one of the gifts of the Camino. Walk at your own pace, on your own itinerary, and especially to escape from the 24/7 captivity of email, texting, twitter, Instagram, and the daily Kardashian report. To have the opportunity to appreciate the sights, sounds, people, the whole experience, that is the Camino.
We are senior citizens, but still working; so being able to spend time away from time constraints, with time to absorb all the Camino has to offer, could not be time better spent. May we all live in the Spirit of the Camino.
