Made it to Paris

Long day of travel and not much sleep on the plane but made it to Paris in one piece. Walked around the corner from our hotel and had a great meal and watched a nice cooling rain. Now, off to rest up for tomorrow.Lue lisää

Day touring Paris

We did Peg’s favorite thing when we only have one day in a new city, a Hop On-Hop Off bus tour. Even though we rode a bus to all the sites, somehow we still walked almost 8 miles. Paris did not disappoint, a beautiful city with amazing landmarks.Lue lisää

St Jean - The beginning of The Way
7. syyskuuta 2022, Ranska ⋅ ⛅ 75 °F
Left Paris at 300 mph on the Bullet Train. Once in St. Jean, we visited the Pilgrim office, signed in, and got information. We checked into our albergue, did a tour of town and relaxed with an affordable French wine before we attended the Pilgrim Mass at the local church. We are hoping for a good night’s sleep in our first hostel. Tomorrow the walk begins!Lue lisää

Refuge Orrison
8. syyskuuta 2022, Ranska ⋅ ⛅ 70 °F
Last night we stayed at Refuge Le Chemin vers l’Etoile in St. Jean. After walking the Camino in 2013, the owner left his life in Paris working in IT and restored a tired old building into comfortable housing for 54 pilgrims. He shared that the gift he receives from each person he meets has easily been worth his investment.

After an interesting night of sleeping in our first albergue, we had a quick breakfast and headed out at 6:45 walking into the dark morning. Our task today was a quick, steep, 2500’ climb in 6 miles. Oh, did I say steep? We had a short walk but am so glad we started early to see the day awaken. It was stunning.

Once at the Orrison albergue we quickly settled into a great group from Georgia, Portland and Portugal. The Camino has already supplied great new friends! At dinner everyone at the albergue shared where they were from and why they were walking. It was a special night.Lue lisää

Roncesvalles
9. syyskuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
Day 2 proved to be another day of climbing 2700’. Conditions where perfect for hiking with cool temps, then mist and light rain. We topped the Pyrenees, crossed over into Spain and then the sun came out guiding us into Roncesvalles.

Once we booked a bed at the monastery for the night we were off to build new friendships in town. We burned a lot of calories so the beer won’t hurt the waistline, right?! 😁. The good thing is, with the help of a pilgrim who did the Camino a few years ago, we were able to book a room for the following night. Hopefully we will get the hang of this new lifestyle (where we plan to sleep the following night) sooner than later.

We shared a meal tonight with other pilgrims from South Korea, Brazil and France. It has been great to start building friendships and have conversations with others from around the globe. It is clear how similar our lives, families and goals are and that we are all navigating the world as best we can.Lue lisää

Zubiri
10. syyskuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F
After a couple of days of climbing we were looking forward to less vertical. We got that today with only about 1500’ of climbing but the temps were much higher. I will say the ice cold lemon soda we got from a roadside trailer with umbrellas and tables was a lifeline, setting us up for the last three miles of the day.

So far the hiking here has been amazing. It is a great combination of trails through the beautiful countryside and a little road walking through the coolest villages. And once you get to town, you get to spend the evening with all the great people you met during the day.

Tomorrow we are off to Pamplona; a regional city. Should be a fun day.Lue lisää

Pamplona
11. syyskuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ⛅ 93 °F
14 mile walk today into Pamplona with 90+ temps and lots of steep ups and downs. Thankfully we started at 6:45 and walked the first half in nice temperatures. We are finding that leaving before the sun comes up is wonderful and helpful.

We stopped for a pilgrim’s breakfast in a small village where we found the only place open because of a small sign on the trail nailed to a tree. We shared a meal with a doctor from Bakersfield and a lady from Hanford. What a small world. The owner of the cafe/store had done the Camino 11 times and shared with us the impact it made on his life.

Once we got through a very long, hot walk into the city we where greeted with beautiful city streets to tour. I am still amazed by the age of Spain and how clean everything is. Had a fun lunch with new friends and now waiting for the city to wake back up (after siesta) for the night.Lue lisää

Puente la Reina
12. syyskuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 86 °F
Longest hike to date for me and Peg at over 17 miles. Started off walking the silent, dark streets of Pamplona and then back to climbing. One thing is clear, in Spain, switchbacks are for wimps.

After a nice stop at the steps of a church for a Camino breakfast we started the climb over Alto del Perdon (check out the video to see the amazing view). From here it was a fast and hot downhill into our stay for the night. Very clean place with a good pilgrim’s meal. Tomorrow we are back at it.Lue lisää

Villatuerta
13. syyskuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ⛅ 77 °F
Today turned out to be a 'people day' with only 11 miles of hiking but lots of social time. The walk took us through wonderful narrow street villages with fun stops to visit with old Camino friends and meet new ones.

We stopped 1.5 early for the stage in Villatuerta at a wonderful albergue with regular beds (no bunks)!! It really has turned out to be a retreat after many miles on our bodies. We spent the afternoon doing laundry with a washer/dryer rather than in a bucket, were provided tubs of warm water, Epsom Salts and vinegar to soak our feet (amazing), showered in showers without flow restrictions (like in the states), drank $5 bottles of wine and just chilled. Looking forward to paella for dinner tonight! This albergue, Casa Magica, is for sale. Hummmmm....Lue lisää
