    Hi ALL
    My Camino Frances has finished but the joys and treasured adventures are vividly in my mind and heart.
    The long walks and shared Camino days easily bring out our best qualities.
    I've said "Lucky Brucee" and I am , but recently I have improved on "Lucky" and replaced it with "Blessed Brucee" because it's so true.
    My new ETA home is now 15/6/25.

    Looking forward to seeing you all soon.
    Blessed Brucee 🙏 🥰    もっと詳しく

    Hi ALL
    You would know the feeling when your adventure is to last just one more day.
    Yes I'm in that spot tonight as after 40 Days my Camino Frances will end on arrival in Santiago de Compostella.
    Happy and Grateful, but it seems too quick and too soon.
    Naturally I will Celebrate the day with fellow Pilgrims and hopefully have a photo or two to share with you.
    Here are a few from leaving Melide etc until today. Captions on photos to follow.    もっと詳しく

    The Albergue Reboleira overnight and 40+ at the Pilgrims Dinner in a spectacular dining hall.
    This Albergue is excellent and maybe the most comfortable. There were 28 at my table, mostly students and all talking at once. Hence the special vino to finish.もっと詳しく

    Hi ALL
    Arrived in GLACIA province today and now over the 400 mtr climb to O'CEBREIRO. Steep and long and it is behind me. Having been to O'Cebreiro with David in 2023, I was surprised what a treasure their Church was and the history it holds.
    Now 3Ks west of O'Cebreiro and on the final stages of my Camino Frances. Realising this, I'm grateful to acknowledge and know it has all been a positive experience.

    5月31日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C

    Hi ALL
    Many times on this Camino I've been blessed, but while I treasure everyone of them, the Video calls from Glenella AND the WARM welcome and shared Hugs from Susi&Fermin truly made my Camino.
    From my grateful heart, thank you all.
    Pamela and her son Dane are also at Casa Susi :-)))

    The 9K walk from Villafranca was lovely... lush green hills, I kept thinking of France, not sunny hot Spain.
    Tomorrow is a 15K walk up the first part of O'Cebreiro.
    It's 80+K to Sarria. My current plan is to walk via SAMOS. When I get to Sarria I'll bus it to SdC (son David and I walked from Sarria to SdC in 2023).
    BTW my SEVILLLE plans are cancelled. Seville's current temperatures are 38⁰ and 39⁰C.
    My Canadian body can't take that 🥰    もっと詳しく

    5月26日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    Hi ALL
    I arrived by bus from Astorga to Ponfarrada where I've always wanted to visit the world heritage KNIGHTS TEMPLAR Castle and hopefully learn more about them. The cold morning was promptly followed by a sunny hot afternoon. An evening stroll around this part of Ponferrada was very pleasant. Benches on the street and in their lovely park were occupied by ladies (young and old) quietly chatting away, dogs chasing toys and the young ladies chatting away.
    I could help myself and took many photos, even splashed out a couple of w/c. As a friend has pointed out I have a habit of visiting prime locations on a Monday, when the prime reason is to a visit sites are closed. Fortunately I'm here tomorrow when the Knights Templar Castle is opened.    もっと詳しく

    5月23日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 11 °C

    Hi ALL
    Good fortune came my way on the Camino Frances tonight because the Albergue Verde is an exceptional Albergue. Lucky Brucee was blessed when given the lower corner bunk adjacent to 2 power points (unlike my previous Albergue with 2 power points for 4 Pilgrims).
    Today's walk was on the Maseta for 19Km. 19 because I took a Maseta detour of 800 mtrs. The arrow read BAR 500 mts, it was 800 and sunny. It was closed.
    Photos: the 2nd photo of me and Lekah & George (Singaporeans). Lovely couple I enjoyed many conversation with.
    The 3rd photo is the flat Maseta.
    In the 4th and 5th photos are the Stork nests complete with the mature Storks (breeding season).
    The 6th photo with a blond German lady who sent foot was aching. Lady in the middle is a Camino Angel who gave the German Lady a 4 km (and a Blessed Brucee) to our Albergue.
    11th phone is a famous Roman bridge, still in use. Lastly shows a Roman road stones feature.    もっと詳しく

    Hi ALL
    Thanks for your encouragement.
    The Maseta is behind me and I'm now in Leon.
    Big news for me is I've got a Physio appointment and had a had a hair cut 🤗
    Better news is I'll take Michelle R's advice and do a Walking tour (via Leon's Tourist office) today (weather is good).
    Other good news is I'll be at Casa Susi with Pam and her son and plans set for SdC on 9-11 June.
    If all this works out I'll also be at SdC Celebrating with the Lass who gave me that Hug at Roncesvalles 🤗
    First 4 photos are from memorable Burgos and the last 4 of Pilgrims boarding the bus as it crossed the Maseta.
    Again thanks for your advice and encouragement. Lucky Brucee sends Hugs (and for the ladies) Kisses 🙏🥰    もっと詳しく

    5月21日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    Yesterday I went to the Leon Tourist office to find info for a walking tour. Unfortunately there is only one in English and we couldn't get them to answer the phone. However the lovely Tourist office Lady said the Catedral and Museum had Audio tours in English. I enjoyed them, particularly the Catedral. The 8th photo shows the 5 stages of the Catedral audio tour. Again historical information I appreciated. Photos 9, 10 and 11 are from the Museum. It has wealth of beautiful and ancient paintings, books etc. Last photo speaks for itself.
    Lucky Brucee later phoned the Tour Guide and will be enjoying his tour shortly. Included is a statue I'm a local park. Tomorrow I leave Leōn, back on the Camino Francés 🥰    もっと詳しく

    Well I'm hesitant to speak of the wonderful Camino time I've had today. Yes there were unexpected problems, but the Camino Provides and it did.
    First photo is Carla and I. Carla is a pilgrim I met days ago.
    Because the Camino brings out the v best in us, Carla helped me sort out how I could efficently get myself from rural country Leon, to the city of Leon.
    Note : I hit the wall with 10k+ to go to my Accommodation. The path was flat and the sun was burning and hot. Enough said.
    Today walking from Burgos (2nd + photo) I first was overwhelmed with the Cathedral (which I toured) followed by seeing Stork nests.
    I'll finish admitting that this is the hot/flat section of the Camino and it maybe not for me.
    So I'm planning to do shorter daily walks (3 days). Then take a train to Leon. BUT it's in pencil. I'll post as it develops. 🥰    もっと詳しく

    Hi All
    I've enjoyed a wonderful rest day in the amazing city of Burgos.
    Met many international pilgrimages, some of them special Camino pilgrimages.
    I've caught up with my Days washing, enjoyed their excellent food (and local wine), took a tour of their historical Catedral and now I have to prepared for the 22km walk into the Meseta .
    First photo is the Catedral Santa Maria. Date's back to the 12th Century and is regarded as one of Europe's best.
    2nd photo is the locals enjoying social conversations over a drink
    Last 4 photos are a tiny number of the sculptures everywhere in central Brugos.
    There is much to see and experience here and on the Camino Frances. Lucky Brucee 🥰    もっと詳しく

    25 May 20k from BURGOS

    5月15日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C

    Hi All
    Old Rubber Legs arrived in Atapuerca, 20Ks tomorrow to BURGOS.
    Today's hike was 15+K. But it was first up a never, never ending muddy climb Weather cool and showers. The first photo shows a Brazilian lady and I in the fog and showers. If you look close you might see the sloppy track. That's her husband and I in the 4th photo.
    The 2nd photo is the track down to the village Atapuerca. BTW my Albergue tonight was difficult to get because the owner only spoke Spanish. A fellow Spanish Camino Lady took the phone and Lucky Brucee has a bed for €15.
    My 20Ks tomorrow will not be as hard as the muddy hike today. 🥰    もっと詳しく

    Hi All
    Just a quick update.
    Camino life's good and I managed 24+Ks yesterday to arrive in Santo Domingo.... Festivals are a big thing in Spain. Yesterday I was amazed to walk among thick crowds of mostly standing well dressed locals with drinks in their hands. Evening's the street next to me was alight with happy children on the street long, lit up rotating children's ferry wheels. Today and the next days look like Poncho wet weather. I might catch a bus. One photo is my new Camino hat
    Look closely and you'll spot the Canadian Pin in the middle. Gift of a Canadian lady. Lucky Brucee.    もっと詳しく

    Hi ALL Dear friends
    Today was to be a 20+K walk (wrong it ended at 15Km).
    Navarrete to Najera.
    My last night in Navarrete was special. Earlier I'd visited the awesome Navarrete Cathedral.
    As my BMCS friend (Jill Hil) recommended, I enjoyed Navarrete, particularly their Cathedral. More than once!🤣
    The 2nd time was when a Camino British lady and I were walking past the Cathedral and I asked her if she had been in?
    Long story short, she appreciated it to the point Brucee got a Hug.
    See Lucky Brucee is Lucky ,.. HaHÀA
    Photos of the Navarrete Cathedral attached. Again I've tried to share the amazing landscapes via photos.
    The last photo is the lovely BMCS PAM. Pam has organized for her, son, DAN and I to stay at Casa Susi's Albergue together 🥳
    And somewhere in these treasured pix you'll see a landmark feature of the FIOJA landscape, a Stork on its next 🤗

    Hi ALL
    I was thinking as I walked 12+Ks to my Albergue in Navarrete. Not quite the 200K mark, but ok by me.
    For me times during the day I experience challenges, such as another blooming hill or will those rain clouds hit me with light or buckets of rain... and aren't they a lovely couple ... Oh I miss my Chop-Chop.
    But Lucky Brucee does have his Camino moments, of that I'm very grateful.
    Here are a few pic from today. I should add French and Spanish and English conversations were following during the Pilgrim dinner... the last photo shows the Camino spirit 🤣
    BTW I'm having a rest day tomorrow (rain) so I'll enjoy the village of Navarrete 🤣    もっと詳しく

    5月7日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    Hi ALL
    I'm enjoying the Camino Frances
    The scenic walking and evening friendships. So much so I've missed posting.
    Landscape photos always get my attention, but even with cropping their magic fades away.
    Here are a few photos.
    The first 2 photos are the Alto del Perdón which is at the top of a windy peek (Wind generators for kilometers). A place I never thought I'd get to. Camino pilgrimages kindly take your photos, and the 3rd photo is the Italian "Antonio" who took the photo of me at those iconic steel Camino sculptures (2nd photo).
    The landscape photo is Cirauqui and lucky me it's view popped up unexpectedly, as I rounded a bend. Cirauqui is a photo that appears in the guide books. The last two photos (taken in Estella) are examples of the many large churches one sees in most villages.
    Tonight I'm staying at a small apartment in Abáigar. I booked Abáigar in Sydney and, while good and management is excellent, it's off the Camino Frances track, which means no fellow Pilgrims to chat to.
    I liked to finish how unexpectedly a Spanish Lady or Man will wish you a "Buen Camino" as you walk by. It a great feeling. 🙏🥰    もっと詳しく

    Just a short post to let you know the Camino rewards. Yes Brucee finished his evening with Camino chats with Earesto (an a Mexican_American). Earesto is walking the Camino Francés a 2nd time (proving its a healthy addiction) .
    I must also add, a Canadian chap was pontificating on Canadian affairs with 2 Sth Korean pilgrimages. What he had to say got me off my chair to ask many questions. Enough almost said.... lastly my dear friends the Hospitelo Ceaser popped in the Albergue. Ceaser, like his brother are very efficient and always cheerful.. Hence the photos attached 🤣    もっと詳しく

    My apologies for not posting more often. Truth is I intended to, however, the Camino fun times and challenges have stolen the time away.
    Currently in Pamplona. I missed Zuburi because of a booking error.
    Yesterday 2 of the Camino ladies, I met in St. John Pied de Port, recognized me and suggested I join them for a Pamplona walking tour. I did and am very grateful. The Guide (Mexican) spoke excellent English has lived (and married) here. Also ran with the Bulls. The walking tour took 3+ hours and included Hemingway's Pub, Pamplona's Cathedral, a Museum dedicated to the Running of the Bulls (started in the 1800s). Also Pamplona's and Spain's history.
    The photos start with Cathedral Pamplona where we wiitnessed and, heard the Nuns and Priest's Choir. Then the photos are from Hemingway's Pub followed by scenic ones.
    Weather 9⁰C this morning, 12⁰ C tomorrow 🤞    もっと詳しく
