Walking with my grandson

Bob Calver said:

Since I completed my Camino in 2019 from Castro Urdiales to Santiago on the Norte, I have many conversations with my Spanish grandson, who lives by the route in Cantabria, about walking together. The general theme has been his concern that I am not to old for a Camino by the time he is old enough. We have done a few odd days on the route when I have been in Spain and our plan is to undertake a Camino together next summer when he will be almost 13 and I will be just 72. As a step towards this, in August this year we are planning to walk three consecutive days with overnight stays in albergues swo he has a sense of what is involved. The plan is to start at La Iglesia, near Comillas in Cantabria and to get to Ribadasella in Asturias. Does anyone have experience of walking with a young person or any advice that might be useful.
