Day #1 (again) Going back to finish the Camino!

Sam & I leave tomorrow, Wednesday April 30, to fly back to Madrid, Spain to finish the 130 mile walk to Santiago. We will pick up where we left off at Ponferrada (the Iron Cross). Now a couple of our friends have suggested that we should go back to the start of the Camino since we failed the in first attempt to reach the "finish line".  Very funny. 

So please follow our 3 week journey On our Camino. I will write every day. We are planning to walk an average 8 miles a day. We are smarter pilgrims now and have booked our hostels and small hotels ahead. It is the true pilgrim that believes the "universe" will provide a bed at night and food along the road.  But it was very stressful and distracting to worry if we were going to sleep on the street or church floor every night. So Sam has booked a variety of accommodations for a journey.  Yahoo!  

Adios!

Mary & Sam
