Webster The Patogrino Prepares for his First Camino

Time of past OR future Camino
Camino Frances from SJPP Starting Aug 21, 2023
Quack quack, Forum Friends! Just wanted to swim on by to say hi! My name is Webster, and I’m a Patogrino! My buddy Stina and I have been traveling together for almost 30 years! But I’m really excited for my next adventure. Stina and I are going to the Camino Frances! I don’t actually know what that is, but she says it’ll be great? We leave in 10 days, and I’m already packed. After a lot of internet searching, I went with the .05L Captain America backpack. Some might think that’s too big for a patogrino of my stature, but it’s the right size to hold the really important stuff - including my rain jacket and galoshes, and a couple of rocks. They’re kinda heavy, and I don’t know why I have to carry them, but Stina says it’s my most important job! I’m really looking forward to all the quackalicious snacks and seeing some neat places. I hope I get to meet some of you along the way - if you see me chilling on Stina’s pack - I hope you say hi! 👋🐥

Quacky Camino!

Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Engraving available, 25 character max.
OMG, A PATOGRINO 🤩 I love it! Hope both of you have a quacking time on camino!
(For a moment I thought you were walking with a pet duck, like some people walk with dogs or donkeys...)
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
The 0.05 litre Captain America backpack? Excellent choice!

Webster, you appear to be well prepared for your first Camino. I guess that you and Stina learnt some basic vocabulary that is useful to know for exchanging greetings in Spain, like hola for hello and cua cua for quack quack?

Buen Camino to Peregrina Stina and Patogrino Webster! 😍

Hola, @Kathar1na! Thanks for the help! Stina had forgotten most of her high school Spanish, so she's been studying, but my plan is mostly just to rely on the kindness of strangers to throw crackers at me because I'm so adorable! 🦆

Cua cua!

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.
