Packing list:

10 Liter dry sack: 2 pairs of convertible pants/shorts, 1 cami, 2 pairs compression socks, 2 pairs wool hiking...
I too have the same departure date! I'm starting to get really excited! This has been something on my radar for 3 years and I'm so happy that I'm doing it with the new moon virgo!
Once again I'm ever so grateful for the attuned assistance! You guys are all wonderful beings! Kate, that's so exciting that you're leaving so soon! I will follow suit and order the Ferrino. Thank you Gitti for answering so many questions! (I have been reading many many posts and you seem to...

Buen Camino! (I can't believe I'm finally doing this!)
How are you getting from Paris to SJPTP? I will be flying in to Paris on the 13th hopefully, and I would like to travel from Paris to SJPTP on the 15th so that I can start the walk hopefully on the 16th! (New Moon!) Anybody have the easiest travel plan down from Paris to the start of the trail?
