Here we go again. I make no promises about this blog, but will try. The secret is to never miss a day. Once I get behind, it is soooo hard to catch up! The Plan Meet Laurie from Chicago (my companion for most of the Lana last year) in La Linea de la Concepción and…
My distances are not huge – I am taking 3 days to do what “most” people would do in 1 or 2. However, today I feel that I have earned my dinner. Plus dessert! I bid farewell to Guty at 8:45 am and by about 10:15 I had arrived in Villavieja. Don’t know why it…
I’ve had a good 2 years, not going further than 120 km from my house, but with not much blogging material! The forced pause was, to some degree, a good thing. I stayed healthy, became a regular sourdough bread baker, grew a lot of salad greens in the back yard, and walked a lot. During…

Daughter A and I flew to Biarritz, where we met Daughter N to walk most of the Camino Vasco del Interior and Camino Bayona from Irun to Burgos – planning a bit more than 200 km over 12 days. Since I don’t regularly watch TV or movies, airplane entertainment is novel. A special movie (really…
Now having my passport back in hand, in the nick of time, I am free to travel to India. But first a stop in Nepal, for a workshop. (This post-retirement employment gets really tedious at times. Can you guess that I have mixed feelings?) The plane arrived late in Hong Kong so we missed the…
