100 DAYS TO GO

 
 
In 100 days time we will be taking the first step of our Camino.



I am busy reading  "The Way, My Way" by Bill Bennett.  What an interesting book.  The author is walking the Camino at 59 years of age - sounds familiar? He talks about following his PGS or Personal Guidance System. He says a PGS is like a GPS for a car. Our PGS tries to guide us through life by letting us follow our intuition.  I often say I follow my gut feeling so I understand what the author means.  My PGS is working now, it is telling me to use my  own PGS to guide me on my way along the Camino.  For me this means not too much studying or planning the details of our chosen route before we leave, but lots of thought (and fun) with all the preparations and gathering of goodies for my kit.  Once I climb onto the plane leaving Cape Town, I will go into PGS mode!  Not sure what David will think of this,  he is used to me being very organized with everything planned for whenever we go away on holiday.  But this is The Camino!  We will be pilgrims - Peregrino's (Dictionary description of a pilgrim is 'A traveller from afar who is on a journey to a Holy Place') on a Spiritual journey.

The Camino will provide.
