Today is the day.
I've had my farewell with my beloveds.
The house-sitters are on their way for our meet-n-greet.
I've misplaced my glasses...
I've packed the boots I said I wouldn't because Dear Spouse said that I had to have them and that he would carry them if I wouldn't.
I have my stupid 2 pounds of meds that I won't need but have to carry.
And I have the tablet so that on rest days I can work on a grant that suddenly came up and has my research office drooling and *pushing*.
My first call in Madrid will be to my much loved Boy, at home. Then to my mum. And a text to Spouse to let him know if I have my luggage and can start my way north to him.
Buen Camino everyone.
Please ask whatever powers you believe in for my small family to be OK.

Will do as you ask. Buen camino, Morgan.
 
New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
A Blessed farewell and Camino, Morgan. Keep breathing and relax when things go a bit awry. . . . and remember that most adversity or complications on your pilgrimage will likely be only temporary, and look better after a good night's rest :)

A flight delay allows me to thank you all.
I saw my first fellow walkers at the airport though they were headed to SPDP via Paris... I wished them Buen Camino and felt that my journey really had begun.

Much as gracias pot todos! Ultreia everyone.

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Have fun.

I'm always curious that some people call home as soon as they arrive at their destination. My partner used to insist on it - but I'm like why - if the plane fell out of the sky they would know it would be on TV! If my plane had been involved in an incident I would call, but otherwise we are obviously OK - but jetlagged and tired - and sometimes just can't be arsed getting a phone (or email) working immediately on arrival. I'm all about making sure people do't expect me to contact them - that way they don't get all upset if I don't, and are happy if I do LOL

Those boots and half the meds will be sitting on a table in some Albergue before you get to Logroño.

Hi Morgan, relax and enjoy the peace and joy on the Camino, allow yourself to meet the other pilgrims and learn from them and their stories.
Buon Camino
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.
