Popped the question...


As most people would know by now, Keiran felt like asking me a question while we were doing the camino. And i felt like saying yes. So we are engaged which is hugely exciting! Back in Santander and its time to celebrate. Even though we are away from our family and friends we still had a little celbration, out for dinner and then a picnic the next day with champagne. We are looking at having an engagment party in the first week of December when we are back in Australia for Katies wedding. Hope we can catch up with people to celebrate then!

Thanks to everyone for the warm wishes of congratulations!

Camino...


This week we decided to head off to start the Camino. The camino de Santiago is a pilgramage that people have done for hundreds of year. We walked 30kms in one day but when we arrived we couldnt find any accommodation. Not even in the 5 star hotels. We had been told that in August it was impossible to find a place to stay, but we didnt beleive it. I could hardley move my legs, and we had no where to stay. Defeated and tired we got a bus back to Santander. If we can find some time we will do it some other time! bad luck!
