    From CDG to SJPP

    There are many existing threads on this Forum regarding this subject. It all depends on what time you arrive at CDG, then consult the train schedules.

    Temperature in albergues

    Don't forget that you will also have to deal with those who want the windows open and those who want the windows closed, no matter what the temperature is inside or outside.

    Advice on starting in Roncesvalles

    Pamplona is closer and perhaps easier, just a bus or taxi ride away. To get there from BIQ depends on your tolerance to the various modes of transportation that are available.

    Orange is probably preferable, they have a shop in Le Puy.

    Grabbing lunch while walking Tui to Santiago

    There are quite a few bodegas and small shops along the way. It should not be a problem to buy a piece of fruit, some bread, cheese or jamon.

    Interesting detours between Burgos and Leon?

    It would not necessarily take a full day but Villa la Olmeda near Saldana is an amazing look at the Early Roman history in the region.

    GR653 VS Via Carcassone

    I have done portions of the Canal Midi, there is camping but it is limited. I would suggest getting guides for the GR's you plan to walk.

    LIVE from the Camino Working as hospitalero at Albergue Municipal de La Virgen del Camino

    Is that the one just left of the main road? I stayed there once and enjoyed the stay in the town because it was less crowded than Leon and there were several nice restaurant options. I think I remember the albergue had a nicely equipped kitchen as well.

    How to order from Decathlon Spain if in Canada/USA.

    Bike rentals for delivery to SJPP

    I used Cycling Rentals a number of years ago. Walked SJPdP to Pamplona, had bike and accessories delivered to my hotel in Pamplona. Dropped the bike off at a bike shop in SdC at the end of my ride. It was seamless.

    LIVE from the Camino O Cebreiro Snow Today

    I spent a night there after riding a horse from Herrerias. I started my ride in freezing rain and arrived during a sleet storm. Snow was being forecast around noon and the pilgrim traffic was at a standstill. I stopped at Meson for a warm bowl of soup, found out there were no places to sleep but...

    The restaurants along the side of the Nive are good but the food in every one of the restaurants around the Marche in Biarritz is absolutely first class.

    Hiking up O Cebreiro in the Rain

    I did it on horseback once in rain and sleet, it was not a pleasant way to do it but at least I got to the top about twice as fast as I could have walked it.
