This seems to be universal.   Pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago look forward
to finally arriving - and immediately begin planning to do it again next
year.    A different kind of experience in some ways, immediately familiar
in others.   Unlike the PCT, with 100-200 finishers per year, the Camino
Francés sees that many each day in the summer months.   Not having the
advantage of living nearby, I had to do the Camino in one piece, unlike
my section-at-a-time approach to the PCT.
