So we are still packing and re packing. Thank you to Penny for my new headband. I can't remember the last time I used a needle and thread but the CPP badge is now on the rucksack 🎒. Greg is spending hours researching the route whilst I am going for surprise approach. I don't want to know to much before I get there, as long as I have access to food I am happy 😃
We have made the decision after lots of discussion, we will carry our rucksacks the whole route apart from the first day. We don't want to get an injury on the first day walking up and over the Pyrenees. There is potential for a knee injury on the way down whilst tired so going to take the safe option and resist the macho urge to carry it.
We also know how important it is for us to get sleep so have booked a private room for the first night.
It is almost 3 weeks until we go and we are ready and excited but also getting a bit intimidated by the reality of this. Although I keep reminding myself that I won't have to cook or clean for four weeks and this is worth 800km of walking.
