We're going to be pilgrims for Halloween!

October 30th will find us on a bus from Madrid to Pamplona. From there, we hope to make it to St. Jean Pied de Port that evening so that we can start walking on Halloween.  It's great to be (back) in Spain!  We'll keep you posted from the Camino as best we can.

Dear friends and family, We'll be updating this as regularly as we can whilst we make our way across Spain. We will be thinking of you as we walk. (Spain dates: October 28th through December 14th)
