Adventure begins again

We are off to Portugal to start a brand new adventure. These ol' bodies are not really ready, but our minds are "evolved" and I've learned that we all walk our own Camino. My Camino will hopefully involve lots of pasteis de nata and meia de leite. (gotta learn that pronounciation by heart).  

Truthfully, I'm looking forward to the simple ritual of waking, walking, eating and sleeping. I'm excited to shed the daily noise of my life and sink into the quiet rhythm of my steps. I suspect that noise will not immediately quiet, as my thoughts carry all the noise along with me. It's been a challenging few years for everyone and I'm one of everyone. It’s always a little challenging packing up and leaving behind, but our send off was beautiful with a delightful family dinner. Now I sit and wait for the unknown to become known. 

We start in Porto. Our plan is to acclimate for a day and then start the coastal route. But we are both open to change and acceptance is my mantra for this trip. God knows I need more of it!
