me on Mt. O Cebreiro, May 15th, 2012

Yes, I finally started to do the CAMINO / St. James-Way / Jakobsweg
from Pamplona to Santiago de Compostela !
Walking takes longer than estimated, because I make a lot of pics and videos... ;-)
NO blisters yet !!!
After the first 100km of walking I had severe problems with my knee
and so I made a rest from walking and took the bus to
Berlorado - Burgos - Leon - Astorga
The remaining 270km from Astorga to Santiago
I am walking again: see my picture here,
taken by a shop-owner on Mt. O Cebreiro !
160 GB of videos & pics so far !
I still have just 65km now till Santiago, so that I will finally have:
370km of walking & 340km of bus-tours !
I will be back in time for the VT-meeting in Bergamo !

Great that you are doing the CAMINO from Pamplona to Santiago de Compostela! I know a man here in Frankfurt who did it all alone in a wheelchair (and then wrote a book about it). He wore out several pairs of gloves along the way.
