Today was mainly a travel day as we took a train from Paris to St. Jean-Pied-de-Port with a change in Bayonne. It was about 6 hours all together.
A lot of farm land in southern France.

Today was no joke, straight up the mountain right out of St Jean. Not a long day only 5.5 miles but we had 2400 ft in elevation gain, definitely a huff and puffer for me.

Tough day today, Teresa's feeling like a cold is coming on and I have a tender Achilles so we're a little beat up.

ReisendeThe “wine tasting” looked like a lot of fun—but may have been wasted on bourbon connoisseurs! LOL. Teresa looks like she’s feeling much better. Sharing your journey is just remarkable. Thanks to both of you for sharing.
