Made it halfway (much to the surprise of family and friends who thought I'd be lost,crippled,dead within 4 days of setting off.. they were even taking bets on whether I would make it to the airport)
Thank you to everyone who is reading the blog and I just wanted to say that all the comments really help cheer me up when the going gets tricky.
Onwards and upwards!!

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Engraving available, 25 character max.
Checking your blog every couple of days and I like your style. There is nothing like humor and a sense of perspective to get you through tricky times, and you have those in no small measure. Enjoy the last half!
 
Loving the blog and your progress. Keep it up.

You've left us with such a big cliffhanger ... WILL TEAM TORTISE REUNITE?? Then so many question to be answered ... first of all, how many cigarettes to get up to O Cebreiro? Oh, jeez, will have to keep tuning in to the blog! Keep up the good work, Andy!

You Know for sure I am reading and loving everything YOU write. I have been inactive for some time, family tragedies can do that. BUT I'm still here and excited to depart 2 weeks today. The timing is awful (for me) BUT i am so committed to joining the fraternity of amazing peeps that have walked before me. xx
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.

Hahaha...and you will have the last laugh, Andy, when you amble into Santiago.
Buen onward camino, peregrino!
 
Hi Andy
Really enjoying your blog. It really is so "entertaining". Your photography is improving and I hope you are not suffering for your art. We know that as an "artist" you give it your all. I am sure that like me your readers are really humbled that you are going through such pain and tough times just to make us laugh.
Buen Camino to all on the way

Where's day 31 of the blog? Talk to us man! Let us know you're alive! Did you get all the way to O'Ceb in one day?
 
I visit your blog on a regular basis and always enjoy the musings of a man with a sense of humor. Keep it up.
