[Gocamino] Camino with kids

[Glenn]

As a veteran pilgrim and parent (of now grown children), I think it would be 
very difficult to walk with young children.  It would be difficult in good 
weather, but weather in Northern Spain is so unpredictable.  My first 
pilgrimage the weather was great, but the second one had about 75% cold, 
rainy, stormy, windy, a bit of every kind of uncomfortable weather.  It was 
hard enough to deal with as an individual, and I can't imagine how it would 
have been with young kids.  I know how strong the Camino yearning is, but I 
would advise waiting until they are older.
