Camino Frances Waiting Day 2: Rainfall, Conversations, and the Rhythm of Life | Day 255 of my 2023 Journal

Cecilie Conrad·Sep 13, 2023· 1 minute

Camino Frances. Waiting day two.

As we followed Erik's return with messages all day, we rested another day.

Washed a lot of clothes. Went for a short, beautiful walk.

Had some meals.

Experienced beautiful rainfall.

Did our things.

I especially enjoyed getting to know Cheryl better as we were not exhausted from walking; we had the energy for good conversations.

The Camino has precisely what you need when you need it. The Camino del Santiago del Compostella and the Big One we just call life.

With love
