All of the pictures are so different, but they are sights you would see daily. We are all still whirling from the journey. It's more of a beginning than an end for me, even though it's been nearly a year since the planning and training began. I think about the people we met the last night in Santiago. One guy translated for another and the message was think about the trip and why we have met. His name was John The Door (english translation for Jean La Porte). I still can't figure out if when I left I was exiting through the Door or entering. Very Interesting.

You were on Verizon. Did you have to do anything special for Europe? What were rough costs for an entry in Europe? Was reception good in most places? Would you recommend it to someone else? etc. etc. etcTimecheckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03655966328174898998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3925198817503557457.post-6416099806981240852009-10-21T00:09:04.216-04:002009-10-21T00:09:04.216-04:00Oh, Rita!

It does take time to adjust to the culture shock of being back in the US and then the more minute details related to "everyday life."

It was a joy hearing from you during my walk. I felt I already knew you as a fellow Pilgrim, so it felt quite right for you to be journeying with me.<br />As you know, like in the photo, there are days when you are the only Pilgrim on the trail for hours at a time. Always a great time for thinking, praying and meditating.<br />Yes, we have come a long way, and we have so much more to learn from our camino experience. <br />Hugs<br />RitaRitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12585084509914920085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3925198817503557457.post-35978665062599097052009-10-20T18:52:30.446-04:002009-10-20T18:52:30.446-04:00Grizzled

They were like a balm to my soul, especially on the long hard days when I thought I coudn't go any further. You who fgollowed me were some of my best "camino angels"<br />And yes sharing was one of the most profound messages that I learned first hand on the journey. More on that in a blog post I am sure.<br />A big hug <br />RitaRitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12585084509914920085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3925198817503557457.post-20457650747479445812009-10-20T18:32:22.552-04:002009-10-20T18:32:22.552-04:00sorry ment to mention-you look like you own the tr...sorry ment to mention-you look like you own the trail in the first pic rita,we have come a long way glad I got to share.<br /> Iansagaloutshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06902859607709732594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3925198817503557457.post-48217593062299693782009-10-20T18:27:02.755-04:002009-10-20T18:27:02.755-04:00join the club girl,3 months back still working thi...join the club girl,3 months back still working things out.<br /> Iansagaloutshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06902859607709732594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3925198817503557457.post-36548304315015521732009-10-20T17:57:59.836-04:002009-10-20T17:57:59.836-04:00Rita…you have been a pilgrim in the truest sense o...Rita…you have been a pilgrim in the truest sense of the word's meaning‚ "…a person who journeys to a sacred place for religious reasons." <br /><br />What a wonderful legacy and blessing you have brought home from your walk—and what a gift to those of us who, through your willingness to share via a blog, accompanied you on your journey. Perhaps that's the Camino's first and foremost life metaphor—that life's greatest joys come in sharing with others.Grizz…………https://www.blogger.com/profile/04828454689578685330noreply@blogger.com
