A week to go before I leave for the Camino! I have been making a possible schedule and packing list. I'm also starting this blog... I don't know who'll be reading it, so please make a comment for me so I know. Here's the schedule. There is almost no chance that I'll be exactly on this schedule. Part of the Camino pilgrim experience is going without knowing exactly where you'll end up that day. I have quite a bit of flexibility so if I need recovery days, it shouldn't be any problem. I might want to walk slower too. Days Walking Destination Notes Target Lodging Reserve ?

It was a beautiful, difficult, and historic way to start the Camino today. I walked about 16 miles from France to Spain along the same route Napoleon's army took when they invaded and left Spain. Tonight I sleep in an old monastery in the small community of Roncesvalles, Spain. The path The pass. The monastery The occupants
