Constance’s Camino 2010
Constance remembers both the sloughs of despond and the delectable mountains on our 800 km walk from Saint Jean Pied de Port to Santiago de Compostela.
Happy Feast Day of St James!

Celebrations are so important!! Did you do the whole walk? I hear it is transforming in so many ways.
I was invited to do this walk by my 22 year old child and we walked all the way from Saint Jean Pied de Port to Santiago. It took five weeks and a bit. An Unforgettable experience – I think in my case the effects have trickled down over the years through memories and incidents.
It sounds amazing.
It seems I came on board reading your blog about the time you and Constance took that walk. Remind me, was the movie “The Way” about that particular walk? We watched it because of your posting and experience. Yes, transformational.
I haven’t actually ever seen that movie…but I think you are right. My memories are mixed, but you could certainly say that I learned unexpected things that have stayed with me.
Celebrations matter!
They do! and We love to celebrate with special food, it seems even more special that way!
Lovely way to celebrate and the ladies look very festive!
The Hittys think that cake makes every celebration more festive!
It does!
