[Gocamino] Children on the Camino

Sat Dec 2 12:33:33 PST 2006

When I walked El Camino a few years ago there was a travel author biking and 
walking with her two children.  I met many people with children.  Anything 
is possible...you may have to adjust your daily walking mileage etc 
accordingly .... Good luck!  Tania
