It may seem a strange title. Well as it happened following the instructions as per the blog designers I attempted to locate where I was writing from using the interactive world map to give you,dear reader, the exact location of c'moi.
Following the instruction I used the two finger method. About 20 minutes after four trips to Africa, 3 circumnavigations of Europe, a side trip to Russia I finally landed in France. By this time I was about to use the one fist approach, which may have given me short term pleasure but long term grief. So patience prevailed. The closest I could manage was to locate the marker near Lyon through which I passed to get here, Le Puy en Velay from where I am attempting for the third time a first blog since leaving Sydney.
Make that four! Each time I add to the draft it disappears. I will try sending this one just to see it it arrives.
Au revoir in desperation
Jim

Joanne Your patience was rewarded. As I mentioned previously it is a technological as well as a physical challenge you are embarking on. Go well. We're seeing many peregrinos passing through San Sebastian. Dejavu.
Alan Well done I would have tossed it long ago. Keep it up.
paul frechette I too am receiving them Jim!!
Phillip We all have our crosses to hear Diego. I'd start my own blog if I thought it wouldn't land me in prison.
Valliandmick Mick You managed to get through to Adelaide, so don't give up! As with everything, it will get easier as you do it more often. We want the whole story.
Wendy Dixon Your blog got through! Yay! Thanks for your tenacity--good practice for the grit you'll need for your hiking. God bless!
Sue I knew there was a reason why I never attempted a blog when on the Camino. Enjoy Le Puy en velay Jim, and I hope the weather is being kind to you
Elizabeth McTaggart Dear Jim, I admire your courage. It won't be easy going over the mountains, but the Lord will go with you. All the best, Elizabeth
Trish Gallagher Thank goodness you are still on planet earth. Was getting worried about you but I see you have been busy and visiting many places!!. You are not alone - your brother in law often sends an empty message when he texts someone and even I have been known to stuff up on facebook - unfortunately my stuff ups are always commented on with much hilarity from your nieces and nephew. So don't expect any mercy from that quarter. Hope you are keeping well and enjoying the peace and solitude. much love Trish
Ron Nissen Good to hear your voice yesterday, Jim. Don't forget the pic of you and the shell at the foot of St Michel. Enjoy today. Blessings on the slog tomorrow. Ron
