I am getting ready to Walk El Camino for 2023 with a few friends. I also have plantar fasciitis so I can relate at so many levels, you are an inspiration.
I will stop watching this journey because I want to go back to your “getting ready” series.
Thanks.
I am SO enjoying your Camino and having watched all the way to here, I wanted to thank you for all the hard work you have put into making your vlogs. I walked from SJPP to Burgos in September 2018 and stopped at that point due to leg problems. Hoping to return this May. You had a great albergue at the end of this day. They are absolutely fantastic in the way they meet all the needs of pilgrims. The sleeping isn’t the greatest at times but they make everything else so easy and I have fond memories of staying in them. I’m a total convert because, before I left home, my strategy was to try and avoid them. I shall now resume my binge watching! Thanks again.
Thank you for taking the time to watch the vlogs! I hope you make a return in May-the Camino Just keeps calling me back, too. Buen Camino! 👣

The videos you shoot are very cute and teach about this beautiful way, your singing is great
At 22:40 - A Very Nice Presentation of the Dinner. Looks Good !!
My husband and I just love your vlogs. Your vlogs are enticing my husband to adding this on his bucket list. Hope you feel better soon and heal. God speed. Stay safe and God bless!!
Thanks so much!!! I’m looooooving my Camino and would recommend it or even a section to anyone. Let me know if you have any questions and I’m happy to share my experiences. 😊🙏❤️❤️
Finally got to watch your latest video, I'm so happy for you on your beautiful journey . It's been an absolute joy to watch 😘🙏👣
Thank you so much! 😊🙏👣
The over the counter ibuprofen here in the US is 200 mg per tablet so keep that in mind when u r doing price comparisons, but yeah, pilgrim pricing for sure.
I look forward to these videos. My heart is flying right on your footsteps. All the best to you my friend and prayers for discovery, contentment and peace. - Tam
Thank you so very much. 😊🙏❤️❤️
That rest area is new. Hopefully it's done on my next Camino 👍🏽
You are walking through postcards! So beautiful! The rice dish you were eating looked really enticing when it was served. Thanks for your vlogs. I'm really enjoying them.
How is your water carrier working out? How much do you carry in a day?
What selfie stick are you using? Sorry for all the questions. I hope your ankle is feeling better.
Thank you so much! My Velcro system decided to self-destruct after the first week or so and my friend had a spare so that’s what I’ve been using. 😊👍 If you’re curious about gear lists, check out my packing list video. I haven’t had a chance to add links to products but will do so when I return. The camera stuff is towards the end. Thanks so much for following along!! 😊😂👣
Good luck and enjoy your walk 🍀👍buen camino!
Thank you!! It’s been a joy so far! 😊🙏👣
I love your choice of music and your singing. Thanks again. Stay healthy and safe. God bless!
Thank you! 👣
Loved this so much, but it did add to my nervousness a little, I struggle with the heat in the UK so when someone from LA is trying to get completed before it becomes ' unbelievably unbelievably hot'...... alarm bells ring lol. Thanks for sharing rachelle, Buen camino
Just don’t go in the summer!!! 😂👣
I am enjoying your Vlogs very much. Such great memories of my own CF two years ago. You may have resolved your ankle issue by now, but I found that Voltaren Emulgel works very well for inflammation. Apply it three times a day. It comes in a yellow and white tube and is sold at any pharmacy. Anyway thanks for sharing your journey and Buen Camino.
Thank you! My ankle good now! 😃👍 Taping it really helped as did the ibuprofen. Never picked up the Voltaren, but I know it works wonders. 👣😊
I recognise that place! Casa la Magica!
It was a great place! 😊👣
When I was walking to Los Arcos, the views out in the distance of Cirauqui were one of my favorites. Probably the best drone footage I got. Wow the church was closed... You could get your stamp there when it opens.
Just gorgeous, isn’t it? I just accept the fact that many churches will be closed when I walk through and there are so many places to see where I can get a stamp. 😊👣
IllGetThere Yes, you are right. I always looked for the churches. Time alone with the Lord had more meaning to me there that out in the road. The. Camino is beautiful indeed! Ultreia peregrina!
😊🙏👣
Ibuprofen in Spain is crazy expensive compared to the UK. I took 4 packs of 16 pills and that was just over a pound, rather than the same for 8 pills in Spain. Really enjoying your vlog, still think you were probably less than a week ahead of me!
Yes, expensive! I bought some just in case, but didn’t end up needing them at all so I’m glad I could share with other pilgrims who needed relief!!
SIESTA !, Well it's not really a siesta time. Store hours in Spain (at least the small ones) are established for workers to work 8 hours, they have to be distributed by the day: they open at 9 AM until 2 PM, reopen at 5 PM and close at 8 PM or alike, so they have much of the day open, think many stores have too few staff to take care of and take turns.
Buen Camino :)
It’s the one thing that I never really got used to because the pilgrim schedule is so different. But it was a good exercise in patience, lol! Buen Camino! 👣
I hope you will consider staying at the alburgue in Granon. It is primitive and rustic but the hosts really do make everyone feel at home and the communal dinner was one of the best I have ever had. If you are handy at cooking you can help out in the kitchen.
I did! 😊👣 I’m currently just outside León (slow to upload because of WiFi) but I loved my stay at Grañon and Tosantos. Both had communal dinner prep and evening prayer services. Wonderful, enriching experiences. 👍
@@IllGetThere Great!
After you pass Leon you will be presented with a choice of taking the route that continues on the road or the alternative. I have taken both and I will never take the one on the road again. You cant go wrong by taking the alternative. It is peaceful and a lot prettier than the route that takes you through the town of Virgen de Camino and beyond. Good luck and buen camino.
Thank you for the tip! I will certainly take a look at the map and consider this. 😊👍👣
My wife and I walked the Camino in Sept/Oct 2018. We found it so frustrating when it was 5:30 PM and we were starving and we couldn’t get anything to eat. One time, in Astorga, I walked into a restaurant, hoping for something to eat. “Señor, we are very hungry. Can we eat dinner?” His response: a shrug of the shoulders and the reply: “No, this is Spain. Come back at 8.” Thank God for the middle-eastern guys with the kebab restaurants. They saved us from starvation a few times. Also, I have to admit going to KFC and Burger King on occasion in order to survive.
I understand! It’s still a challenge to adjust even after walking for 3 weeks and knowing the schedule. I just make sure I have some snacks around to carry me through those times. Yesterday I was so hungry I ate everything I had, lol!!
Lol. Siesta is real. Philippines used to be that way 😔
You have a strange obsession with doors :)
😅 It’s true!!!
Haha...you got Spained at 20:00 ...
😂 Totally Spained!!! 👣
I enjoyed this video but I have to say it - stealing grapes from the farmers is just plain wrong - they are growing them for their business and last year alone over 350,000 pilgrims hiked the camino - imagine the effect of these little pickings must have on his business!! So disappointed.
I appreciate you following along and agree entirely! I’m a huge advocate of leave no trace, but in a moment of human weakness, I did pick just a few to taste. Thank you for taking the time to comment. Be well and Buen Camino! 👣
@@IllGetThere I just watched your latest vlog - I really love that you took the time to explore and take alternate paths also. I intend to redo my Camino and take every alternate as well. You are a joy to watch.
Dream Hiker2 Thank you so much! I hope you can make your next Camino very soon! Buen Camino! 👣
