August 16, 2011

One week tomorrow! After a year and a half (at least) of researching and planning, I'm a week away from leaving. Next Wednesday, August 24 I fly from Toronto to Madrid. I arrive the next morning and take the train to Pamplona. The walking starts early on the morning of August 26.

Now that I'm so close to starting out on this great adventure, I can honestly admit to experiencing both elation and some trepidation. I'm eager to experience the Camino. I'm also eager to see the beautiful places that until now I've only read about. But, it'll be close on to 6 weeks when this is over and I am once again back home. To say that I will miss my wife, and our family, would be a serious understatement.
