Plans for 2015

Having had to abandon our plans for 2014 we are now looking at walking in mid 2015. Passing through Oviedo we will start to walk from Ribadeo westwards along the coast, then to Viveiro via Xove. From Viveiro we will take the FEVE to Ortegueira and then round to ponte de Mera to walk to San Andrés de Teixido; then to Ferrol and the Camino Inglés (for our final pilgrimage).

We plan to post our experiences on Camino 2015 although there may be a few posts here as well later in the year. Any preparation notes will be on Training for Pilgrimage (pack weights etc for 2015)

Happy New Year to fellow pilgrims, especially others who will be returning to the Camino in 2015

A delay in our plans

We had been making plans to walk the Camino del Mar-Camino Inglés in 2014 but are now expecting to walk in 2015. This could be better as, since making the decision, we have learned about the storm damage along the routes in various places. Repair work is being done, but with trees down on the tracks and repair vehicles churning up the mud it will need time to settle and dry out. Walking later than planned isn't an option at present, so we will have to wait until next year and let everything sort itself out.
