Well I'm off then . . .

Mike Savage

So many friends to meet . . . so little time
Time of past OR future Camino
Camino Francés,Inglés
Muxia/Finisterre
Português Coastal
Português Central
Sanabrés
My turn has finally come. I enjoyed the coastal route and the Portuguese so much last year that I am going back to walk the Portuguese Central route, Sanabres, then the Inglés route again. I will first start with 4 days on Sao Miguel and visit the three towns on the west side that my grand parents were from. I leave in a few hours.

I wish you all safe travels and a buen camino. I hope to meet you on the trail. Watch for the guy with the gray flat top hat and gray handlebar mustache! It is not likely I will be on the forum while I am on Camino and am usually pretty quiet for a while when I get back but I will be back.

Buen camino.
Thank you very much, I appreciate it and I certainly hope so!

Mike , wish you all the best and joy on your up coming journey .

Be safe , Peter.
Thanks Peter, I was hoping this was the year we would meet on the trail but alas it wasn't meant to be. I guess there is always next year!

Have a great time on all those Caminos! Hope to run into you on the Ingles!

That would be wonderful, I hope it happens! I will be carrying a 20 liter bright green backpack.

Mike I will see you upon our returns. Sorry we didn't get any walking in this summer. Ultreya..... Willy/Utah/USA
I missed seeing you too, I can't believe summer is nearly over. Have a wonderful time as Hospitalero!

Mike , all the best!
Again enjoy it to the fullest and Ultreia.

What a wonderful time to walk now.
Thank you so much. I really do enjoy walking this time of year!

Mike, I hope you will have a wonderful time on your Camino.
Enjoy and stay safe. :)
Thank you very much. That is definitely part of the plan.

¡Buena Suerte Amigo!
¡Gracias mi amigo, hasta luego!

Hope you have many new and memorable experiences while on your Camino. I will miss your presence on the forum while you are away.
Thanks Chris, I will miss everyone here too and it really is about the experience, isn't it?

This despot is with you, Mike! May you run into no others on your journey. ¡Muy buen camino!
 
My flight arrives in Lisbon 9/13! Probably slim to nil chance of our paths crossing but I'm extremely nervous about the long stages from Lisbon to Porto (I'm just in from a 17 mile walk with a very light pack and I'm pretty sore) so look forward to your comments.

Have a safe and eventful walk. Bom Camino!
