We're not sure if we'll be able to sleep much tonight as we're all very excited, but also feeling a tiny bit of trepidation, as it is a big step into the unknown.
We certainly look the part though, and thanks to the creativity of Midlands Branch minders, no-one will be in any doubt that we are true pilgrims.
Here you see us sporting our scallop shells which will tell everyone we meet that we are pilgrims walking the Camino to Santiago, and hopefully they will be nice to us in consequence.
Our minders have full size scallop shells to wear on leather shoelaces, but they were far too big for us little bears, so we are extremely grateful to the Midlands Branch for finding, drilling and threading some bear sized shells. We've had a lot of support and generosity from all the branches recently, and it has all been greatly appreciated, so thanks everyone.
We'll hopefully be blogging from France very soon, so keep reading.
Lots of love the Camino Bears xxx

You certainly look the part now boys! Very fine shells, and will double up as a bowl if an impromptu snack stop is required en route
