Hi Catania, family and friends! We are off to Spain with our good friends from Canada, Jean and Len, after many months of preparation (like a mini-job)! Our destination? El Camino (the St. James pilgrim's road)for 2 weeks; then we tour the other spots listed above for 3 more weeks. As we go along, we will keep you posted on all of the excitement we create and encounter!
