    Episode #2--My first day on the trail.
    Route: Irún to Pasajes de San Juan
    Distance: 17.3 KM
    Steps: 24, 860
    The albergue woke us up at 6:00 AM with loud, popular music. There was a simple breakfast and I was out on the road by 7:30 AM. Immediately, I met another pilgrim who asked me the way. I showed her the coastal route and we walked together for the rest of the day.
    The climb up to the Sanctuario de Gaudalupe (Jazkibel) was about 4.4 KM with an elevation of 300 M. It went well with only a few difficult short stretches. From the summit, it was an 11 KM hike along a mountain ridge finally descending into the fishing port of Pasajes de San Juan.
    Once the albergue opened at 4:00 PM, I showered and did my laundry for the day. I made and shared Jamón bocadillos, fruit, and chocolate with another pilgrim.
    ¡Buen Camino!

      Thanks 👍 Yes, it was an unproblematic journey. The buses in Spain work very well in my experience.

    I will be doing the Camino Norte in June. I like your videos because there are so much information you offer. Thank you for taking the time to show us the Way!

      I looked at your playlist and I only saw the hike until Aviles. were you able to reach Santiago. I’d like to see the rest of your entries.

    Two questions:) Can you talk about the process of getting a bus ticket from Bilboa to Irun and where to go to get our credentials?

      Thanks for your questions. Unfortunately, I can't add any new material to this vlog but I can respond here. The easiest way to get a bus ticket from Bilbao to Irún is to buy it online [Alsa.com]. You can obtain your credenciál in Irún from the albergue Jakobi or the tourism office. I hope this helps. ¡Buen Camino!

    500 kilometers upwards?

      Yeah, that's obviously a verbal typo--I meant to say 500 metres 😂
