Day 97 continued - doing very little but I guess thats the point this week. Omitted the 3 course lunch today, and relapsed with a visit to McD instead! Have replaced waterproof jacket with a nice rain proof orange poncho, and also invested in a metal water container and a wide brimmed floppy hat for the upcoming hot sunny passages across Southern France. Began yesterday to contemplate the Camino, and how best to attempt it. The choice being to continue as in the previous 3 months, at 20 miles a day, or to follow a guide stage route. The former would be passed in 56 days (48 stages + 8 rest days), whilst the latter would consist of 66 shorter stages, rest days being somewhat optional, but possible. The slower pace, and greater likelihood of spending time in the midst of other pelerins(pilgrims) would seem to be the best choice, although it will involve the challenge of less speed/activation that is contrary to my nature, and the additional expense of time, and money for accommodation.
