Shell Shock - Nell's Big Walk. Keeping a 32 year old promise two friends walk the Camino Frances. Saturday, November 7, 2009. Arco do Pino to Santiago de Compostella. Its the last time I tell the early morning lie "get up Frances its 8 O'clock" This essential devise has served us well for over a month, letting us get the early starts whilst allowing Frances to hang onto the fantasy that she's not a crazy pilgrim getting up at sparrow fart (God knows its little enough of an indulgence). Besides we now hav...

Shell Shock - Nell's Big Walk. Keeping a 32 year old promise two friends walk the Camino Frances. Thursday, November 5, 2009. Belorado to St Juan de Ortega. The walk up from Villafranca was lovely and we heard hardly any other birds but cuckoos-hundreds of them (which may explain the absence of other birdies). Then we hit-well a mud autostrada-I have never seen such a wide unsurfaced.mucky track? Heavy machinery and heavier rain made this 'mud central'. Can't get over the size and grandeur of the old Aug...

Shell Shock - Nell's Big Walk. Keeping a 32 year old promise two friends walk the Camino Frances. Thursday, November 5, 2009. Najera to Santo Domingo De Calzada. Head out early up and over the hill out of Najera. We're sorry to leave this friendly little town but are keen to get to Santo Domingo as we're staying 2 nights in order to fit in fairly long detours to Cana and Suso/Yuso. Stopped to take a break at a purpose built pilgrim rest stop complete with concrete chaise lounges and mud traps for boots!

Shell Shock - Nell's Big Walk: San Juan De Ortega to Burgos
http://bigwalky.blogspot.com/2009/11/day-st-juan-de-ortega-to-astorga.html
Shell Shock - Nell's Big Walk. Keeping a 32 year old promise two friends walk the Camino Frances. Thursday, November 5, 2009. San Juan De Ortega to Burgos. The Camino leaves straight as an arrow from the church door. We head out and walk a genteel gavotte with the two Norwegian men-we lead off then they take over, they hang back and then we lead for a while before repeating the whole thing. The morning colours are beautiful and there is a strange pale lemon diffused over the landscape. For the Camino bet...

Shell Shock - Nell's Big Walk. Keeping a 32 year old promise two friends walk the Camino Frances. Thursday, November 5, 2009. St James Gate Dublin to Saint Jean Pied de Port. Frances took practically all the of the photographs, but those from Santiago to Fisterra are courtesy of Catherine- thank you both. I think Frances' pictures are the real heart of the blog, and they seem to act as a catalyst for memories- the very best kind of 'Souvenirs'. April 5th 2009 - Palm Sunday. Share a taxi from the airport ...

Shell Shock - Nell's Big Walk. Keeping a 32 year old promise two friends walk the Camino Frances. Thursday, November 5, 2009. Puente La Reina to Estella. Following the Flechas - Heading out over the eponymous Puente La Reina. Harvesting asparagus from the red mud of Navarre. But no matter how many times we scrap them clean our boots soon revert into big red mud-balls. The trick is to keep going because when we stop we start to slide backwards-sometimes these unintentional glissades can look oddly gracefu...

http://bigwalky.blogspot.com/2009/11/day-3.html
Shell Shock - Nell's Big Walk. Keeping a 32 year old promise two friends walk the Camino Frances. Thursday, November 5, 2009. Not the Camino I want-but the Camino I need. Couple thin red ponchos, light shoes French. Dark gray jack-rude or maybe hard of hearing Japanese/Korean gentleman? Well I'm going to put the RN on my 'to do' list then! When I put on my. Fluorescent green poncho, bought the day before we left and very much. Snow falling in the cloister at Roncevalles. And clothes thawing at Ronsevalles.
