Saint Jean Pied de Port

Arrival at Saint Jean Pied de Port, still absorbing all that was happening. I was worried about finding the pilgrim's office, the albergue and buying a pair of sticks. But in the end, they were all just a few meters away from each other, on the main street of the Citadelle, the oldest part of the village. La Citadelle is a fortification built in the Middle Ages to protect the surrounding villages. It has a medieval appearance, narrow cobblestone streets, a large gate at the entrance and large walls surrounding it. We can also see a beautiful bridge over the Nice River and the ruins of their old castle.
After a walk through the charming village of Saint Jean, the day ended with a dinner at the albergue with the other pilgrims. We talked about the Camino, about expectations, and we also introduced ourselves. Everything was new to me.
Oh, I cannot forget to mention the amazing waffle I had there. It was simply the best waffle I have ever had. I will never forget it.もっと詳しく
