I am unpeeling my pilgrim life. Yesterday I gave up my walking sticks, I don’t need them and I have a great pair at home. Today I will leave behind my trusty but ancient Nalgeen water bottle. The walking has stopped but the journey has not.
Yesterday I said goodbye to Santiago… tapas and chorizo!

And hello to Porto where I am watching pilgrims start their long day of walking – I am envious. Goodbye blisters and achy hips.

I never say goodbye to planning the next trip….

Hardest goodbye of all, leaving a part of Mom at the Cape at Finisterre.
