    Train Fare Toulouse to Bayonne

    Hi Paul, I did a quick look up on the SNCF website and found, depending on what time of day and how far out you plan, you can spend from about 35 euro and up to 65 euro per ticket. My husband and I did this route about 5 years ago to start our Camino. You failed to mention the ages of your...

    Class of 2010

    The patch is great! It help the recognition of friend you may not know otherwise. Although I have figured out that most of us are friends already. We just didn't know it. ;) Nicole

    Bed Bug question

    Just a quick point here. Permethrin is poison, right? I'm a bit concerned that sleeping in poisoned bedding for several weeks may not be the best idea. I'm from Texas and we use bug repellent with deet. Is that as bad as sleeping in poisoned sheets? I'm a bit concerned ...

    laundry

    Yes, taking your dirties into the shower is the easiest way to clean your underwear. It takes minutes. Strip before showering and throw your underwear, socks, under shirts and bras on the floor. Wash yourself and after the soap has rinsed over your clothing all you have to do is spot wash the...

    Flying into Bilbao and other questions

    Re: Flying into Bilbao We were on the Camino last year during that odd snow storm. The weather was very nice the week leading up to that day. It did get colder the day before with rain. We were not prepared for snow or real cold but I bought a warm, waterproof hat and we walked on until the...

    Getting there

    Hi Josefina- Welcome! In answer to your question I believe that there are many nationalities represented on the forum. What I like about this forum is that people from all over the world participate regularly. There probably are a few more American(I mean look at the difference in populations)...

    nerves kicking in about where to begin Camino

    Hi Pips, One option would be to stay the night in Bayonne and catch the first train/bus out in the morning. Due to transportation scheduling last fall we were unable to get to St, Jean in the evening so we stayed in Bayonne at the Hotel Paris Madrid. It is located next to the train station and...

    Camino in October?

    We started the Camino last fall on October 23rd. We had planned just 1 week to walk. The weather was cool but not too bad especially for two middle-aged overweight people. My husband and I did not know what to expect so we packed high tech shirts like Under Armor and pants with zip off legs...

    What do I wear?

    My husband bought a pair of the Off Road Crocs prior to our Camino in October. He loves them and has worn them regularly since.

    Again, again..........IRRESPONSIBILITY SOMETI

    We were on the Camino late last October when an early snow storm hit. We had not brought clothing to wear that would protect us from that weather so we quit a few days early and went home. Disappointing yes, life threatening no. We saw early enough and made a smart decision to stop. The Camino...

    Bless You Rebekah! I get so tired of the stupid chatter. If wine can't kill it we are in trouble!

    June/July Camino

    The restaurant tour was tempting but we had to go home :cry: Yes, sorry about the abrupt stoppage on the blog but Madrid was not so easy for the internet access. I was surprised that there was easier access on the Camino. I'll pick up where we left off on the blog this Fall and I'll be...

    first time

    We went in October last year and plan to do it again in October this year. I'm hoping to finish in Spring 2010, before the rush :lol: Enjoy, I'm sure the end of May is going to be wonderful!
