Welcome to the Fat Al and Banana blog, rejuvenated since our return and in preparation for October 2013.
The camino is a journey for everyone and there are many types of camino, almost as many as there are pilgrims, its your own camino, enjoy it. I hope this site will provide you with some help as you prepare for the walk, some help when you are walking and other than that just enjoy it, we did.
Preparation. Everything you do to prepare will unravel in the first 2 hours, and then you'll know whether you can do this journey. Try the Preparation page for size
Everyone is different, by the time you've walked to Hunto (5km all uphill out of St Gien) you'll know how you'll do. Less than an hour, stop reading these pages, about 1 hour 30 - you'll do well, keep pacing yourself and you'll do the 500 miles no problem. More than 2 hours, stop at Orisson and contemplate getting buses and taxis from time to time, or take 6 weeks, its worth it.
Follow the yellow arrows, drink lots of water, dont carry much, you'll be in Pamplona within a few days, you can buy anything you feel you'll need, but by the time you get there, you'll know you dont need it! Wise words, well remembered.
