Hi everyone,
I am preparing to make my first pilgrimage to Santiago in a couple of weeks, and I'm still unsure about which part to miss out as, sadly, I only have 28 days to walk it. I'm in my late 50's, reasonably fit, and I've done quite a bit of training for the Camino, but I'd have to go some to complete it in such a short time. I need to be back at school for early Sept, so I guess I'll have to take some form of transport at some stage.
My son walked the whole Camino a few years ago, and reckons that I should skip the 'long, boring bit in the middle,' where there's no shade for miles (you'll know better than me where he means!) but I must admit, these conditions actually appeal to me!
I need to know more specifically where might be a good place to (regretfully) take some transport. I'm starting from SJPP and hoping to walk at least 400 miles.
Any suggestions would be very welcome. I'm really looking forward to it, not long now!
Jean
