Press Play

On October 14, 2013 Morgan and I left the Camino in Leòn Spain due to problems back home. We symbolically touch this pillar in front to the Cathedral in Leòn to put our walk on "pause". Morgan has since completed her walk. Today I touch the same pillar to put my walk back in "play". 

On the way

At YHZ. Madrid bound. If all goes as planned I will be unpacking this at an albergue (hostel) in Leòn Spain this time tomorrow.
