Tapas & wonder

Yesterday on June 3rd, I completed stage 14, but I’ve had tech difficulty I posting blog. I’ll try catching up here with Stages 7, 8, 9...
(Stage 7) Monday, May 27. Viana through Logroño to stay in Navarrete. Best tapas so far in Navarette - at a little bar in the shade of the church. In our alburgue bunk room, we met two women from Germany who have been taking their holidays/vacations to walk together in various countries on multiple paths for 13 years. Wow. I’ve only been walking 10 days. One does not need to be religious- and certainly not specifically affiliated with Catholicism to be moved by the dramatic tableaux in each church. Most pilgrims of all religious & non-religious beliefs visit the churches for their own reasons that the Camino provides. The church in this village brought me to tears. Each church I visit offers yet another avenue of wonder.

Spirituality comes in many flavors. The beauty of the pilgrimage, as evidenced by your glorious photos, provides many opportunities for looking inward as well as outward. May your soul be blessed and healed. ❤️

    My Camino

    In May & June 2019, I walked el Camino de Santiago across the north of Spain. I walked the Camino for more than 1,000 kilometers (about 600 miles) from the foothills of the Pyrenees in France at St. Jean Pied de Porte, into Spain, to Santiago de Compostela, and then out to Finisterre and Muxia, the most Western tips of Spain. I walked to honor the entwining of the physical and spiritual in human experience, and to commemorate the memory of a loved one. I was on the Camino for 40 days, and my blog tells the launch only from my first 10 days of that journey.  Two months after returning home, in September I gave a talk, which expands on perspectives that emerged throughout the entire journey. It is available here in this video of a narrated powerpoint.
