Thank you all

Bridge outside Leon

Hello all.

I've been back from the walk for two and a half weeks now but it feels an awfully lot longer! Many things have happened in the family and there are lots of good things to look forward to. The benefits of the Camino have showered down, with emails from new-found friends and re-connections with older ones - fellow pilgrims from far and wide. Future paths beckon, if health permits.

Thanks to all your wonderful generosity, the Grand Total on the Friends of Londiani charity appeal stands at an amazing €4,045 and Frank and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We can assure you that it will be put to very good use in Londiani, and Frank will give an account of his three weeks there when we return home near the end of August. I am off on July 14th heading for the Maasai Mara, and Frank flies out to Londiani on July 17th. After our separate three-week volunteer projects we will join up on safari in the Mara and then have a few days on the coast to sample the Indian Ocean once again. So it promises to be an exciting and unique summer - and certainly from my point of view the three weeks en camino have prepared me well for physical exertion and roughing it a bit.

Photos are still to follow but will let you know! Gracias and love to all.
