    9–10 июл. 2024, Франция ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C

    Took the train from Biarritz to Bayonne. Transferred and took another train to St. Jean Pied de port. Went to the pilgrim welcome centre where I met a wonderful family that gave me a coquille. Went to my hostel to find out that my reservation was for tomorrow!! Duh!! The concierge was so helpful and phoned his friend and got me a bed at 29 rue de la Citadelle. Now, I'm enjoying a Kanterbräu beer at a creperie. Afterwards, walked around les remparts of the town. What an amazing view of the town amidst the mountains!! In the evening, at the hostel, met Ferdinand's 2 sons from England.Читать далее

    From St. Jean Pied de port, I took a break at Orisson to eat. It was a very hot and sunny day. I felt like I was getting heat exhaustion. I arrived at the Borda Hostel after I took a wrong path which added an extra 2 hours. They were completely booked, but Lorenzo accommodated me as did the other pilgrims. They made room for me. The view was beautiful. In the evening, we had a wonderful dinner together after everyone introduced themselves.Читать далее

    Roncesvalles to Zubiri

    12–14 июл. 2024, Испания ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    At 8:10, after breakfast, and answering Glen's (Perth, Australia) difficult question of why I'm doing the camino, I headed out on the 22 km in the rain, on the rocky-road trek to Albergue Rio de Arga, in Zubiri. I arrived at 6:10 pm (stopped for about 1.5 hours sporadically on the way). Each time I saw more rocks and steep slopes downward, I took a moment to strategize which way would cause the least threat to fall, twist the ankle, and leave me to the wild dogs. In Zubiri, the first albergue I went to, was very welcoming and the host carried my backpack up to the room. I met Yong (SK- Sports psychologist) and Pierre (Limoges) who I shared the room with. Then, I was invited to eat with kind Italians who later partied on the balcony, under my open window, til about 1:00 am to the background music of the Arga river. No worries because I could barely sleep anyway-my back and legs were killing.Читать далее

    Today,Saturday, July 13, is a rest day. My sleep was restless and the other pilgrims left at 6am. I later woke up at 9:50am when Sabine entered the room to clean. I tried getting the technological authentification process figured out between credit card and my European phone number: called twice to Canada but their help did not help. Finally, figured it out with Sabine's suggestion of switching the SIM card. Went for lunch at 1:00 pm (My tummy was growling...no breakfast). Found a small restaurant just around the corner, and had a lovely lunch. Later, did laundry, looked after my blister, strolled through town, and ate the other half of my burger for supper.Читать далее

    ПутешественникHi Rhonda, I hope your day of rest helped and you’re feeling full of energy today. The scenery is beautiful, and the villages are charming. Do you have any idea how many people live in these villages ? Also, what is the second language on the street names? Have a great day!

    14.07.2024ОтветитьПереводить
    Rhonda Gerber

    ПутешественникYes, the rest day really helped. The villages are very small. Some might have 50? people and others 100 and the larger ones maybe 1000. The second language is Basque. It is taught in schools. One of the hostesses explained to me that her daughter is going to Basque School because if she would have youe to Spanish school, she would be alone. I don't know why but I'm guessing it has to do with enrolment numbers.

    Arrived at the albergue, Trinidad de Arre, at 3:30pm. The signage for the entrance pointed to the door that had the "open" sign, but in actuality, the entrance was around the corner. Another sign instructed to stamp our own credenciel. Fortunately, after I rang the bell at the "entrance", a nice young man, Xavier from Spain, came to find me. The same confusion happened to him. The host, José, was nice enough, but no information was given about the facilities, and the wifi didn't work in the rooms. It only worked near the office which outside of the sleeping quarters and was untidy & rustic: like a caved entrance. The accomodations were sparse. In town, everything was closed because of San Fermin. I found an open shop which had mostly candy but I found some chips and beer for supper. I sat in the park to eat and the one other man there might have thought I was a hobo, but I ate my spicy chips with gusto lol. 9:00pm, the boys at the other end of the floor watched the EURO Soccer match between Spain and UK (2-1).Читать далее

He also explained the importance of magnesium and complex sports vitamin for the hiking. I bought the recommended items from him.

    There was no breakfast nor donkey service so I repacked my backpack in the bar area (no host) and started walking with a heavy backpack at 6:30am. Very nice, cool, dark morning.

    Very nice people here. Footbath with ice cubes, water refills, and a very nummy supper : mixed salad, beet salad vegetarian lasagna, gooey brownie with ice cream. We all sat together with chef from Switzerland. She explained the very democratic process of the Swiss government. Unfortunately, I have forgotten named and didnt take pictures of our meal together.Читать далее
