    davejsy added the media item Pyrenees sunrise to Camino Frances.
    Day 2 shortly after setting off from Orisson to a beautiful sunrise, one of so many on this amazing path. Its crazy thinking about me on that day, and then me on day 30ish and everything that happened in between, I really had no idea what a crazy...

    On the Frances, I didn’t start seeking out the spiritual part of the Camino until around Burgos. It made all the difference going to mass, staying in the monasteries, listening to the Gregorian chants in Rabanal or the singing nuns at vespers in...

    If I have a next time on the Frances, I will be sure to include them. The other regret I had forgotten to mention in my post was the Pradela variant out of Villafranca del Bierzo. The photos I've seen since I passed it up twice are amazing and...

    If I were to identify one regret, it’s that I didn’t take my Camino a bit slower. I walked the CF in 31 days (pretty much the traditional stages). Since then, I now schedule in rest days and shorter stages. Slowing down would have allowed me to...
