You should never assume anything on the Camino, when I caught a bus out of Santiago this morning it was raining hard. It had been raining for the last five days so as I sat in the bus and looked at what I had to walk from Ferrol today I wasn't too positive about the Camino Ingles. But when I arrived in Ferrol the skies cleared up and so began what was an amazing journey, on a magic Camino with a group of people from all over the world. The Camino never ceases to amaze me😀

What do you do when you make long term plans to walk multiple Caminos then six weeks before you leave for Spain you dislocate your right shoulder and tear a tendon as you tried to climb out of a gorge and as you almost died as you clung to the cliff face with one hand unable to climb or descend and your saving angels your friends tied a rope around your waist and pulled you up to the tops. Do you cancel or do you go ahead knowing how difficult, if not an impossible journey it will be. Come with me and see my extraordinary journey battling constant pain, then the improvements and jubilation as you reach Santiago de Compostela to complete my tenth Camino in my seventy first year. So much love and thanks to all the people that I met along the way giving me encouragement, blessings of the shoulder and being part of this wonderful journey called the Camino.😀

The Kanangra Boyd Wilderness area is the second largest wilderness area in NSW. This is the most remote country in the southern Blue Mountains. We follow the Gingra Track from stunning Kanangra Walls to the Kowmung River, one of the most remote wild rivers in NSW to camp overnight. The Gingra Track has been used extensively over many decades although lately the regrowth that has occurred since the last bushfires seems to suggest that fewer people are using it. The track is non existent over much of its length once we drop down from the Kanangra Walls plateau but nevertheless camping on the Kowmung River is one of the most rewarding experiences you can give yourself as a bushwalker.
