I want to do this but have a 14 month old daughter, I would love to bring her along. I am a single parent and think this experience would be great fo both of us. I have met some tat have done this and say there are hostels along the path. Do you find that true as well?

Aunt Terri works very hard…and has saved to make this trip. Instead of buying a candy bar or cold drink at the Tom Thumb, she put her money aside to buy a plane ticket. We can all do ANYTHING if we set out minds to it. I cant take a hike in Spain right now because I have children, and they are my main priority…but u can bet that when Im older, I too will be enjoying the adventures in life. I am so proud of you Aunt Terri! This is a personal journey…and I pray you are getting what God wants you to get out there! Our prayers and support are with you! Love you!

Hi sweetie! Glad you made it there and are on your way! I had to laugh at your train station fiascos! I have been to lots of places where I didn’t speak a word of the language and the first word I always figure out it “Exit”. It helps a TON in train stations and subways. That first picture of you, is that on the Camino, or is that in Maine from your AT hike? It sure it pretty!! I am looking forward to hearing more as you hike along, but in the meantime, please tell me you have a English/Spanish dictionary with you!! It will help in those tricky restaurant situations!!

I’m so jealous. I have too many responsibilites to do something like that now but hopefully that will not always be the case. Sounds like something I would like.
Good luck. I’m looking forward to your next entry.

Tonight, I saw your people who were selling your fudge at the May Fest. Likable folks. God bless your journey. I hope you have “the time of your life.” Looking forward to your next journal entry.

thanks for all the positive comments and for those sticking up for my writings. It does take money for a plane ticket,and you can’t count the food expense as you would heat at home.Walking is cheap though. It is costing 9 euros for a bunk at night. I took my rainy day savings and said what the heck.do it now and not wait for a rainy day.I grateful Lou invited me to come along on this hike with him.It has already been a God thing and a history lesson to boot! There is a challenge to try to converse with someone who speaks no English and you speak no Spanish! continue to pray for us as we walk.Check out http://www.partnersworldwide.org for mmore info on Lou known to me as Africa which was his trail name on the appalachian Trail and we hiked together!
