    The floor of the church opened up for us to descend into the town and begin our journey
    1View of Le Puy en Velay as we began our CaminoHere we are, the walking crew back together again! But we are missing Donna😟Looking back at Le PuyI was impressed by the immensity of this house barn, those hay bales were ginormous!Our trail on the first day was high and getting higherAs always, we had some cows to observe. And some beautiful stone buildings.Carolyn walking up to a church in a village a few km outside of Le PuyYay, a place to sit and rest! Perhaps a bite to eat or drinkNow we have a cute goat, as well as some beautiful cows to share our trailIt didn't rain on us, but we had some muddy trails to navigateThey make good use of all the stones from the field and pile them into fences🐐😍🐮hello goat1Stepping aside for the farm machinery, we like to watch the machines do their workAfter pilgrim mass, a nun opened the steps in the floor so we could descend from the cathedral

    A lot of climbing today, we walked about 17 km and most of it uphill. It was very beautiful though, we enjoyed the views. It was our first day and we weren’t used to carrying our packs so it was a little rough.Read more
