    Greetings

    Hi, Deborah, You may want to look at Moissac as a starting place. http://www.chemindecompostelle.com/Serv ... rance.html You're being in your 50's does not mean much, imo, on the Camino. My husband is in his early 60s and I will turn 60 later this year. We walked this spring with a couple...

    Greetings

    Hello, Deborah, Walking from Le Puy to Santiago took us 68 days. We left Le Puy on April 13 and reached SJPP on May 19, I believe. It was a glorious experience, while the Le Puy-SJPP section was quite different from the Camino Frances. The section in France is well marked but it's much...

    Bathrooms

    Frankly, this was the greatest adjustment -- or 'culture' shock -- I had last year. It took me the whole way from Le Puy to SJPP to feel comfortable to go and pee behind a bush. Glancing furtively around to see if anyone's coming -- recognizing the perfect hiding hedge, rapidly unbuckling the...

    Camino films

    Thank you for this list of films. I hope to be able to see some of them. Last fall I saw _Saint-Jacques... La Mecque_, director: Coline Serreau, a comedy. The reviews were not that great. Those of us who did walk the Camino and saw the movie liked it, possibly because it brought back so many...

    le puy route

    Le Puy to Aumont-Aubrac Hi, Barbara, The 'dénivellés' (ups and downs) between Le Puy & Conques are both beautiful & impressive. If you have the opportunity of looking at the 'Topo Guide GR 65, Ref 651, Le Puy-Figeac), this will give you an idea of the steepness and length of some of the...
