One day to go before we get on that plane to Paris.

I have finished work now and am officially unemployed which feels good and scary at the same time. Something to ponder on our return

Pooki has already started her holiday with Aunty Marion and we wont see her for now over 2 months.  That’s feels very strange but is probably more of a concern for us than Pooki.

POOKI – she has had a hair cut since this picture was taken

Today is all about sorting out our affairs and the house whilst finishing our packing and weighing our back packs which we intend to carry for a month across France. We intend to have around 15 kilos between the 2 of us.

Below are our rough plans for each day – starting off with less K’s at the start but building up as we go.  If we fall behind at any stage we will look to catch up by doing a leg or two on the bus.  This Camino is about enjoying each day and we don’t intend to push ourselves to the point that it becomes all about sore bodies and feet.
