Pastor Bob & Jeannie in Portugal!
They've been in Portugal for over a week now. They began the Camino Santiago at Lisbon Cathedral (pictured above) and traveled over 15 miles the first day to the town of Azambuja. The second day they traveled 22 miles and met a woman from Dublin who was walking on her own so they began chatting and enjoyed Rose Marie's companionship for the next few days. You can read more about their journey on Pastor Bob's Facebook page. Enjoy some of Pastor Bob's photos below!
