I MUST BE GOING, I PURCHASED THE PLANE TICKETS



Well, I guess this means I'm really going to do it.  I've been watching the cost of airfare every week or so and hadn't looked for a while because we're currently traveling in the RV.  But two days ago I had an Internet connection and checked.  It had dropped $300.  Cathie and I talked and she has agreed to meet me in Madrid after I complete the Camino.  Unfortunately her ticket price did not come down, but the two different tickets at two different times would probably never be the same.

So, I leave on April 5th, Easter Sunday and fly to Madrid.  I will make my way to Saint Jean Pied de Port in Southern France where I will start walking.  I have given myself 39 days to complete the 500 miles, which should allow me some rest days along the way.  Then on May 18th I will meet Cathie in Madrid and we will spend 3 weeks in Spain and Southern France before making our way to Germany to visit friends.  Our return flight leaves from Mulhouse, France on June 8th.  Guess I better start training.

    Congratulations Dana. Looks like the timing and bod are coming together make this walk happen. Wonder if you've ever used Naproxen for that shoulder? Works pretty good for a couple of my inflammatory problems. Look forward to your blog next spring my friend.
