Every day we have looked for something to be grateful for. Some days were easier than others.
1. We are grateful we arrived in Santiago happy and healthy.
2. We are grateful we had a warm bed and plenty of food to eat every day
3. We are grateful for family and friends who believed in us, who loved and supported us
4. We are grateful for the pilgrims we met along the way, those who inspired us, those who shared their stories and those who encouraged us with an understanding smile.
5. We are grateful for our walking sticks which helped us up and down countless hills
6. I am grateful for Compeed and Hikers wool which helped my battered feet get through many a day
7. And most of all I am grateful for D2, my daughter Liz, whose love, patience, optimism and wicked sense of humour gave me strength to keep going when I couldn’t find my own.
