    Day 13 Larceveau to SJPP, 19 kms

    October 13, 2023 in France ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

    SJPP = Saint Jean Pied de Port

    We had a most enjoyable and leisurely walk into SJPP arriving around 12-30. It’s a town we know well and it never loses its charm for us. I had planned to write more but our afternoon and evening were busier than anticipated. And we’ve just returned from dinner with our friends, Pierre and Nadia. So will leave it at that for now and hope to write more tomorrow.

    Speaking of … we have a big day ahead. About 25 kms crossing the Pyrenees from SJPP to Roncesvalles in Spain. We’ve done it before and it’s tough, even in ideal conditions. The weather can play a huge part. Clouds have been circling all afternoon. Grateful for cooler temperatures but would be even more so if the rain and wind stayed away. It can get wild up there.

    We’ll see what tomorrow brings. 🤞🤞🤞
