Thank you, my dear friend! Happy to complete the journey with you!

Bought a flashlight yesterday so we could leave at 7. Fun to walk in the woods in the dark!

Ignore me in my fashionable poncho--look at those gorgeous trees!

We're here and all is wonderful. Feels so good, happy and sad all at once. A lot of unexpected tears today!

Glad we could check in early to our hotel next to the cathedral. Not just cuz we were soaked (it rained the whole way) but also because it allowed us to invite our friends in for Irish Coffees and lunch and really celebrate.

I am very grateful to my friend Mary Beth for asking me to join her on this incredible adventure. I have loved it all--the ups and downs--and highly recommend the Camino Frances experience. Wish there was an equivalent at home. You really connect with people in a way that's hard to explain or replicate in normal life. But we have promised to try!

It has truly been a *buen camino*!Read more
