A very BIG "Congratulations" to our dear friends Christian and Chantal who completed the "Chemin de St. Jacques de Compostelle" yesterday. They have walked all the way from their house in Burgundy (Charbuy, Bourgogne) to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. That is a distance of 1860km, all on foot and across the Pyrenees. They have walked several hundred kilometres each year for a number of years to complete this amazing feat. It has been their holiday each year for three to four weeks each time. They can onkly take a short time each year because of their commitments to their "Bed and Breakfast"- Les Chouettes (Chambre d'hotes in French).

 

They finished this wonderful pilgrimage on the day we completed our journey on Anja in 2014 and what also makes it special is the fact that it is my (David's) birthday.

 

In other news, we left Anja at her winter home this morning and then took the train to the beautiful St Malo in Brittany (Bretagne). We completed 2588Km on Anja this year (but we were not walking!)
