I am settling into the walking every day. My feet still get tired after 15 miles on a hard surface, but overall I feel great. No blister issues. The weather has really been very good. Less sun than last year, but I think less rain as well. I think the trail is quieter as well.Continue reading “Rabe de las Calzadas to Fromista”

I am now in the flatter part of the Camino. The Meseta runs from Burgos to Leon. I have had great weather the past several days. That probably ends tomorrow as the rain returns. The past two days and tomorrow do not have many options in the winter, so I need to carry food andContinue reading “Granon to Rabe de las Calzadas”

The walk continues to go well. Today was the nicest weather day, by far. No wind, no rain and temps in the 40s. Click the link below to read about my past two days. Logrono to Granon

The weather continues to be OK. It has been very windy the past few days. Not very cold and no precipitation, so not too bad. Well, it did rain at the end of the walk today and while walking around the city. Thanks for following along. Let me know any questions as I am alwaysContinue reading “Estella to Logrono”

I am off and walking. Two days down, ?? to go. All is good. I feel fine physically. Three more cold days ahead (temps staying in the 20s during the day), before returning to more normal temperatures. Click the link below to see what I have been up to. St Jean to Zubiri

Just a quick update. I am in St Jean Pied de Port, France now. I start walking west tomorrow – Saturday January 3. My first post may be in 2 days, but I am not sure I will have wifi, so it could be once I get back to Pamplona in 3 days. I checkedContinue reading “St Jean”

Yes, I (Gary) am doing another winter walk. I fly out of Phoenix in a few days, on December 31, 2025 and fly to Pamplona, connecting through Charlotte, NC and Madrid. The link below is my recap page for this walk. I will publish new entries every few days like previous walks. I will sendContinue reading “Camino 2026”

This is my final post of this trip. I fly home from Zurich tomorrow morning. This trip did not go as planned, but I really enjoyed the journey. I have no problem when things change and you just figure things out as you go along. Zurich

I arrived in Zermatt today. I will be here tomorrow, then am off to Zurich and home. It has been 3 great days since I last posted, so figured I would go ahead and post today. As always, thanks for following along. I understand several of you are having problems commenting. I wish I knewContinue reading “Zermatt”
