I’m a bit surprised that I want to go on adventures, especially ones that are camping. Well, yes and no.

When I was a little kid I loved following my older brother around and getting into trouble. I wanted to be a part of the fun.

As I got older I was less adventurous. I still thoroughly enjoyed life and fun but tended to be a bit more cautious.

After my first Camino at the age of 52 life changed for me. I felt younger and more energetic. I longed to be walking and on the move.

Fast forward we are heading out on our second camping experiment. We learned a few things on the overnight we had and have made a rookie mistake bringing too much stuff and that will get adjusted after this eight day trip.

We are camping just outside of Lille, Belgium at a place called Camping Siesta. It’s very nice and of course very quiet at this time of year.

Always a learning process. Off we go!!
