Mmckrowdy reacted to BHP's post in the thread Death of American pilgrim in Castromaior today with
Like.
This was my husband. So many thanks to all of my fellow pilgrims who stopped to help and to pray and to translate for me. He was doing what he loved. Thank you for the news article link. -
Mmckrowdy reacted to Becky 59's post in the thread LIVE from the Camino New donativo in Pamplona is open: Betania with Like.
I just started today volunteering at Betania, a wonderful small Donativo at the far end of Pamplona old town. It just opened last summer; all bunk beds (no mats!), usually 14 beds but in a pinch can expand to 18, and with plans to expand in the...

Mmckrowdy reacted to good_old_shoes's post in the thread LIVE from the Camino For those worried about beds... with Like.
...I am on day eight of walking the Francés at the moment. It is quite busy. A lot of talk about beds (and the need to book ahead). I don't book. Today I tried really hard not to get a bed. I really tried. Got up late. Took my time to pack...

MSo, I've just found about this event and thought it would be good to share here. The movie has been mentioned in previous posts, like this one. Unfortunately, I cant be in Sydney on that Thursday, but maybe others can! At Hayden Orpheum Picture...
