Just weeks to go!

July 21st 2009 by Blackie1
It seems like ages ago that I first dreamt about doing the Camino....well, it is ages! Now it's really happening and I have just over four weeks to go before I fly out to London on my way to the south of France where I will start my walk.
Training is happening although I will be trying to increase the walks: both number and distance.
My checklist of what to buy and do seems to be still very long. Hope I have everything covered.
