thanks, Shelley! Yes, and we have had that kind of wind on two other times we walked across the Pyrenees! It must be fairly common!

@@1PZfan thank you for sharing your memory! I love to hear others share their Camino stories!

😊👍

@@exploringthevines5869 yes! This section stays green ! At least in the three seasons we have walked it. Can’t say about winter since the route is officially closed.😊

Thank you!

yes, it was cold some of the time we were there!

@@MrRugbyprop1 the Burgos cathedral is a favorite of ours.😊

@@anneokane7172 thank you!😊👍

@@MrRugbyprop1 thanks. Hope it helps people.

@@MrRugbyprop1 might be a good idea. Thanks!

@@MrRugbyprop1 never have. We walked through some farms where there was a dog. But it was on a leash. Just barking. No problems.

@@MrRugbyprop1 thanks!

God’s grace is sufficient for what he sets before us. Grateful to be here in Santiago. Fun meeting so many pilgrims!

@@thatslife4me thank you!😊

@@anneokane7172 thank you!

Thank you for your prayers. Not sure what we will be able to do. Lots of time to pray for everyone and everything.😊

@@lgt391 thank you! Yes, the Castillo is a favorite here.

@@eugenebae yes! And thank you for following along. We are both sick with head colds right now so we are having to recover our strength. Glad you are planning to come again.😊

@@CaminoProvisions Sorry to hear that. Please take care.

We went to the SJPP Tourist Info Office and asked if they would call for us. (because we don’t speak French). The company was Express Bourricot . +33 661 960 476 email: contact@expressbourricot.com. My experience with taxis and luggage transport is that they often can communicate by What’s App when I use simple English, and they use simple French and Spanish 😊

@@CaminoProvisions thank you 🙏🏻

@@annaknapp5104 I pray all goes well ! Buen Camino!

Yes, Katie, we remember you well! Thank you for your well wishes! Buen Camino!

@@joansisneros8375 thank you for your comment. You have encouraged us!😊

@@xthinker88 there are many people more fit than we are for sure! In general, we do walk every day outside, or at least in a mall or on a treadmill. We also go at a pace that is slower than many, and take 5-10 minute breaks every hour or so. We rested and ate at Orisson, used their toilets, but did not walk all the way to Roncesvalles. We have done that twice in our lives, and know we can’t anymore. We listen to our bodies and do what we can do. In this video we were 68 and 69. 😊 We are leaving next week to walk again. This time we are 70, 71.

We bought it a few years ago online. I think it was through an anon the Camino de Santiago Forum. I just went on to look for it so I could send you a link, but I don't see it there any longer. We love it because it has just the right amount of detail for pilgrims (not highway details or things drivers might need). If there is a company name on the map, it is covered up by our frame. Sorry I can't be more help. When we are in Santiago in October, we will plan to visit Ivar, and we will ask him about it. I'll let you know anything I find out, 🙂

@@CaminoProvisions Thank you so much. I am on the verge of retirement and have been thinking about the camino for the past two years. It is a really scary decision and confusing to pick routes, timing, etc. Your videos are wonderful and I have your site in my bookmarks for future research. Good luck on your next walk!

@@cynthiaeaton4696 thank you! Have fun planning and dreaming. After watching our videos if you have questions write to us at info@CaminoProvisions.com. Buen Camino!

@@cynthiaeaton4696 thank you for the encouragement about our videos. Keep dreaming, keep planning. If you still have questions write to us at info@CaminoProvisions.com and we will do our best to give answers. Buen Camino!

@@allenannett5534 yay! That is very exciting. We love Porto!

It's a privilege to pray for others. ❤

@@mimisalmon2913 How are you guys doing?! Great to hear from you! I think of you two every time the picture rolls by on my screen saver from the Navarra border marker where we took each others’ photos. 😊

@@CaminoProvisions doing great. Charles insists on working but I’m firmly retired and traveling quite a bit. I recently did the Portuguese Way from Porto and the Kumamo Kodo in Japan. The fall has us both cycling in Sicily and Sardinia and then I’m heading to Turkey for a few weeks followed by a trip to Botswana with Charles. I’m ending 2025 (so far anyway!) with a month hiking in England doing the Dale’s Way and Hadrian’s Wall and Scotland doing the West Highland Way. Safe travels and Buen Camino; I admit I’m a bit jealous of you doing the Frances again. What a wonderful experience.

@@mimisalmon2913 Wow!😃

Thanks ! It’s always good to know what is working for others. 😊

Thanks for this suggestion. They certainly appear to be a good alternative. Only concern would be their weight to carry in your pack versus the Crocs we have recommended.

Thanks for the suggestion!

@@walterwest7457 so true, so true! We ask a lot of our feet to walk so many miles on the Camino. It works well for us to take good care of them.👍

:-)

Thanks so much! You might enjoy a video about the Camino Francés. Crossing the Pyrenees th-cam.com/video/NcvyqLAS_Mg/w-d-xo.html

Good range of sizing. Great features.👍

Thanks, Anne!

So glad you found us! We wish you well with your plans, and Buen Camino!

yes, indeed!

Interesting thought.

Yes, even when Wick and I are walking together, we are often lost in our own thoughts, or one of us walks a bit faster than the other. So it is as you say. You can be on the journey together, but have some solitude as well.

On our first Camino we flew into CDG, then took the TGV to Bayonne, then a local train to SJPP. To check train times a free app we like is Rome2Rio. Also a website, you plug in any departure city and destination city and it displays all the transportation that goes between the two points you tell it. For the trains and buses, it links to the correct company that provides the service, and you can explore the schedules. It also gives approximate costs. Very useful tool. We did discover when we planned to use the train (several years ago) we could not make a reservation from the US. We were told it was because the European companies couldn't be assured that they would be paid by our US credit card company. I don't know if that has changed, or if the reason given to us was true. Some people also take a commuter flight from Paris, but check out what airport those flights depart from. The person I recall flew from Paris to Biarritz, then from there to SJPP, either by bus or taxi. Hope this helps you figure out your itinerary. Buen Camino!

@@CaminoProvisions Thank you so much. I really appreciate all these valuable information.

@@cambridgespeechclassgtaple9351 🙂

It really is!

Yes, a one man orchestra!

Very talented!

Thank you!
