Start of the Camino Del Norte

Anne and I are flying to Boston on September 7 to attend a memorial service for all our family and friends that have preceded us into the next life. 2019 is the 30th anniversary on our mother’s death and we have had  a memorial service every year in her honor. As other members of the Muldoon family, other relatives, and close friends have passed away we have added them to the memorial. This year we are remembering our sister Mary MacDonald.

We leave from Boston to Santander, Spain on September 9 and arrive on September 10. We start walking on September 11. We plan to walk into Santiago de Compostela on October 7.

We are dedicating this pilgrimage to Mary MacDonald and will have her pilgrim passport stamped as we make our way across northern Spain. Mary will receive an official Compostela when we arrive in Santiago.

  1. What a beautiful tradition, Ed. There must be a flood of bittersweet memories, laughter, and love, at these annual celebrations.
