Windswept's last camino post - ever.

[windswept]

Thanks to all of you who have been with me on my journey, I really have enjoyed your company. For those who have done the trek I hope I have brought back some treasured memories, for those setting out, you will have hard days but they will be far outweighed by the good ones. Never look back at where you have come from and always look forward to where you are going to. And before you know it you will have arrived.

I have promised my long suffering wife that this will be my last Camino, and from now on all my walking will,take place in the UK which I have sadly neglected over the last few years.

My last blog is at.

www.dartmoorwalker.blogspot.co.uk

In the next few days I will be posting the video I made along the Way. It is around thirty five minutes long.
It will prove to be the perfect cure for insomnia. I'll post a link here when it's up.

Goodbye and God Bless.

Thank you windswept for a delightful journey...I have looked forward to your posts and will miss them! Keep on writing. You are very talented. Always wanted to do some hiking in UK...maybe I'll see you some day!

Hi rach

Please at the very least least let us know when there's a new blog....maybe windswept winds through windermere

Next year I'm going to walk through the Cotswolds to Bath Abbey. A little story, if may. I have a friend who is a little younger than me and in 2014 was diagnosed with a cancer that would, he was told, end his life in the september of that year. He is fighter. Last year when I walked the Portuguese I lit a candle for him when I arrived at Santiago. This year in every church I visited on the VdlP I did the same. He is still live and still fighting. So you see, I have to keep,walking and lighting candles for him each year. Will it do any good? Well, it won't do any harm, that's for sure. And as long as he lives I will keep walking for him.

 

[windswept]

Buen camino windswept!

, Norelle, I will certainly ne doing a blog on them. Next year it will be across the Cotswolds to Bath Abbey.

It is my hope that you will stick with the forum. You Can be a wealth of information to the pilgrims that are just starting on this journey for the first time.. After the Camino your journey continues...it may be a different path, or a different road, but the journey continues. Happy trails to you and Buen Camino.

You know, I just have to add a thought here.

My husband left this morning for three days in the wilderness. I would have gone, but some duties around the homestead, along with a little touch of some bug I can't shake, have kept me here.

Never would I deny my husband a trip if it called him. Did she suffer because you want on Camino? Looking at your Camino journeys--three?--I wonder if she ever went with you. What does she like doing? I'm curious now....Does she ever travel?

I know you're going to be trekking in your home country, so I bet you will be continuing on with your amazing journeys...forever!

I love Windswept, and I just feel like I detect a wee note of sadness in his final farewell.

You know, it could be the post-Camino blues! What do you think? Could be!

Thank you once again Windswept ..... good luck to you.

Thank you, Mystery. As soon as I get my video onto You tube in the next day or so you will have an idea of what you will see. Good luck with the training, keep,it up, it will stand you in good stead, particulary if you take the Ourense route and go over the hills to Zafra.

 

[CarolineMathieson]

I don't think you can give up the camino as easily as that!

I walked my first camino in 2000 and its still in my blood and my spirit!

I want to walk another camino after an 8 year hiatus, but I need several years to prepare for it as I am so unfit and overweight.

Have you walked the West Highland Way or the Coast to Coast routes?

Hi Caroline, not yet, which is why I what to do a bit more in the UK

 

[CarolineMathieson]

My partner and I were down in Oakhampton last year staying with a friend and we took daily train and bus journeys to the north and south coasts. I noticed when we were in Penzance and Mousehole that there was a coastal trail all around the south coast. Have you walked that?

Hi Caroline,

What you saw was the south west coast path walk that is 620 miles long and goes from Poole to Minehead. It is a superb coastal walk. I have walked several sections of as it is passes within a few miles of my house.
