2023年5月11日, フランス ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
I arrived in Paris with my friends Joan and Chris. While we waited for our other friends to arrive on a later flight we walked to the Eiffel Tower.
It was overcast, but not rainy, other than a fewもっと詳しく
First day on the Camino
2023年5月14日, フランス ⋅ 🌧 54 °F
We walked what is considered a half stage today, but it was actually farther than I've walked on the first day on the Camino Francés. This is the "crossing the Pyrenees" stage. While the terrainもっと詳しく
Day 2 - onward to Burguete
2023年5月15日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 50 °F
We began our day with a somewhat disappointing breakfast in St Jean Pied de Port due to the lack of a menu and French language skills on our part.
Then we headed over to the tourist office where ourもっと詳しく
Day 3 - the day of the mud
2023年5月16日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 50 °F
This wasn't a particularly long day but rather difficult because of the rocky terrain and the mud and large puddles spanning the trail after the rain from the morning and previous days. The trail wasもっと詳しく
Final day of the "Push Start Camino"
2023年5月17日, スペイン
My Camino this year is a little different. The first four days are what I'm calling a "push start" Camino - I'm accompanying 4 "newbies" on the Camino Francés, and today's walk from Zubiri toもっと詳しく
Back to France - Bayonne
2023年5月18日, フランス ⋅ ☁️ 64 °F
I'll start my solo Camino del Norte from Bayonne. I walked this route back in 2018 and started in Irun in Spain - I didn't realize then that I could start on the trail in France.
I saw the rest ofもっと詳しく
Day one on the Camino del Norte
2023年5月19日, フランス
I decided to start my walk from the lighthouse in Biarritz after the woman whose place I stayed at told me how lovely the walk along the coast is.
It definitely was beautiful and there were tons ofもっと詳しく
St-Jean-de-Luz to Hondarribia
2023年5月20日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
While I was still walking next to the ocean today it wasn't on the pedestrian seaside walkways of yesterday. Most of the walk was along a fairly busy road, but the ocean views were still good.
When Iもっと詳しく
El Purgatorio - Hondarribia to Pasaia
2023年5月21日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 57 °F
I was hoping for clear weather today because I planned to walk the route called El Purgatorio, which follows a high ridge with great views. When I did the Camino del Norte in 2018 I was very jetもっと詳しく
Some pics from San Sebastián
2023年5月22日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F
The sun did come out for a while, and I had some great ice cream. I'm usually disappointed in what most places call dark chocolate, but this place knows how to do it. Yum!
I finished up the day withもっと詳しく
Pasaia to San Sebastián
2023年5月22日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F
After yesterday, today was practically a rest day! I only walked to San Sebastián about 5 miles. Of course the day started with a climb - up concrete and rock stairs - the equivalent of about 25もっと詳しく
San Sebastián to Getaria
2023年5月23日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 59 °F
Today was the longest distance I've walked so far on the Camino this year - just over 26 km, but it was fairly easy. A few climbs, but I walked with a couple of young women, one from the US and theもっと詳しく
Getaria to Ibiri Auzoa
2023年5月24日, スペイン ⋅ 🌫 57 °F
I didn't remember this stage as being particularly difficult when I did it five years ago, but maybe being five years older makes a difference. My calves never hurt, they just didn't want to takeもっと詳しく
Ibiri Auzoa to Markina
2023年5月25日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
While yesterday was more difficult that I remembered today was much easier than I recall from five years ago. I took my time walking, and was still second to arrive at my albergue shortly after theyもっと詳しく
Markina to Gernika
2023年5月26日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
I'm a little behind on posting so I'm writing this three days after the fact, so probably just mostly pictures
I walked about 26 km today with lots of ups and downs as is typical for this route.もっと詳しく
Gernika to Larrabetzu
2023年5月27日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 70 °F
I thought that this was going to be a pretty easy day, since it wasn't a very long distance - about 16.5 km, or a little over 10 miles. In fact I planned to start a little later than usual because Iもっと詳しく
Larrabetzu to Bilbao
2023年5月28日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 61 °F
This actually was a pretty easy day. There were some hills, but they were mostly in shade and it wasn't anywhere near as hot as yesterday. I walked most of the day with Kasha from Poland who I met aもっと詳しく
Bilbao to Portugalete
2023年5月29日, スペイン ⋅ ☁️ 59 °F
There are three ways to leave Bilbao and none of them seem great. The official route is quite a bit longer, and my Camino app warned of a steep 1 km hill. My calves wanted a rest so I chose one of theもっと詳しく
Portugalete to Castro Urdiales
2023年5月30日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 57 °F
One of the nice things about walking out of a town at 7 am is the smell of freshly baked bread from the panaderías. This morning that was the best thing about the walk out of Portugalete, as most ofもっと詳しく
Castro Urdiales
2023年5月30日, スペイン ⋅ ⛅ 68 °F
A few pictures of Castro Urdiales, including its medieval bridge leading to the Iglesia de Santa María built in the 15th century.
Castro Urdiales to Liendo
2023年5月31日, スペイン ⋅ ⛅ 61 °F

Liendo to San Miguel de Meruelo
2023年6月1日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 55 °F

San Miguel de Mereulo to Santander
2023年6月2日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 57 °F

I managed to arrive for the ferry to Santander just as itもっと詳しく
Santander to Liencres
2023年6月3日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 59 °F
I opted for a much less traveled and "unofficial" coastal alternative and it was beautiful. There were no way markings so I followed a forum member's Wikiloc tracks. But it was pretty easy so long asもっと詳しく

They should take a tip from Segovia and the aqueduct and ban traffic all around the Eiffel Tower. Hope your trip to SJPP is easy!
