Hey everyone,

I know it has been a few days since I posted last but I just wanted to check in with everyone. I am doing good and still hanging out. I have met some young people that are friends of my cousins and they have been showing me a good time. I have gone out for drinks, had a nice large friendly lunch, a spectacular walk around Lac Leman (lake Geneva) and a tour of the CERN facility, (this is the particle accelerator that is located in France and Switzerland). I am sorry to report that I don't have any new pictures as of right now.

This week more family is coming into town and we are all getting ready to take a trip to Le Puy in France to spend easter weekend. Then after that I am planning on heading toward the boarder of Spain and France to begin the Camino de Santiago. This is a 1000 year old pilgrimage route that many people travel each year. There are no specific starting locations but I am going to attempt to start in St. Jean Pied de Port on the French side of the Pyrenees and then walk across to the Spanish side 700 kilometers to the western coast in Galicia to Santiago. This whole journey takes about three to four weeks and is supposed to be a once in a lifetime experience. I will have plenty of pictures from this trip and will attempt to continue to post where ever I can get a computer and internet access.

Until next time
All love,
Brian

On your Camino de Santiago use the environments surroundings as the canvas for your camera's eye while you look into the eyes, faces, and bodies of your fellow journeymen, yourself...enjoy and share when you can.

Your walking/hiking trip
Oh Brian, Does that hike ever sound wonderful. I've only met one person who attempted such a thing. You can't imagine how proud that makes us, to think that our grandson, and godchild is attempting such an adventure. We will be walking with you along the way, on the computer, keeping up with your journey. Much love Nanny and Grandpa
