The Power of Now
Still 9 hours till I leave Sydney and already my first major awareness/awakening. Spent some time yesterday getting my anxiety levels up by looking up the forecasts in St Jean Pied de Port, Valcarlos and Roncesvalles for next Thursday and Friday ---first 2 days on the trail----plenty to get anxious about --- but what a waste of energy about something that may or may not happen. I probably spend about 90% of my time in the past or the future and this walk is a great opportunity to spend more time in the present.

We're thinking of you and visualising a beautiful clear day for your first trek over the mountain. Love Maz
Just saw Chris off at the airport. He was one of the few going through customs asked to be searched for drugs.... none found... well none of the illegal sort...
so off he wandered. 10 minutes later the 'searchers' came running up - found him at last.... and returned his ticket and passport. Phew. Hard to get by without those. A great start to a wonderful journey....
Hope Paris was gorgeous and you got to leave your pack somewhere... tons of love to you
may the road rise to meet you....
Just heard from Mum (she'd heard from you)that things are tough, mud weighing you down and raining and lots of uphill climbs. Take time to ...BREATHE DEEP ...TAKE IN YOUR AMAZING SURROUNDINGS ...AND TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. Prayers said in mass tonight for you.I love that you are on this amazing journey, look for the rainbows that you can conger up so beautifully and look at the stars ...we are all sharing the same skies. Love Jo
