HI, We are Barrie & Carole who, along with various family and friends (all Canadians and one Belgian) will be doing our first pilgrimage starting Sept 10th from Ponferrada. We all SO look forward to the experience and the wonderful camaraderie of each other and those we meet along the way. As usual, we are all doing it for our own personal reasons but suspect that these will change as we progress on our way. We also bid all other peregrinos a fond bon voyage/buen viaje.
