I used them too and booked way in advance. In the tool I had to pick the drop off in the drop down tool so if there was an error it was all me. I did good though and printed it and had it laminated so I could hang from suitcase wit a caribiner. It was 3 pages so I would make sure the correct...
We spent our extra few days in Paris before and after but if I had to do it again, i would go through Madrid or Barcelona. We didn’t have time for Finistere. We had 45 days.
We knew a pilgrim friend that was ahead of us on the camino. He got gored by a bull in Los Arcos! He was gored under his butt and then trampled by the bull breaking ankle and wrist in several places. This was about two months ago. He spent 3 days in the hospital and then traveled home taking up...
You could email Hotel Roncesvalles also. It was a wonderful hotel.
If you can’t find place in apps try the internet search. I did that for a few places.
We thought we were booked in O Pedroso but we were actually in O’Pino/Arca at Casa de O Acivro. It was great! We had washer/dryer near us and we’re by the pool. Lunch and dinner was great. We left about 6am and got into Santiago about 11. Should have gone straight to mass but got our credentials...
We’re on the Frances now and there isn’t too much talk of covid. You see a few masks in the towns and in pharmacies but that’s about it. We’ve heard of a few pilgrims that tested positive and stayed in a private room for a few days before heading out.
I’m on the Frances now and a couple we talked to have taken a few taxis. One time they called and the driver wouldn’t go from one region to another. But they got help from the bar owner and he got someone to take them.
I’m not sure there was anywhere to get picked up Borda to Roncesvalles.
I’m in the Frances now in Santo Domingo de La Calzada and it’s not that busy. Most people we’ve talked to have pre-booked but the ones that haven’t are finding beds.
We walked from Pamplona to Puente La Reina today. We got a little lost trying to get out of Pamplona. The locals kept pointing to the right way!
The walk up to the metal sculptures wasn’t as bad or steep as I thought it was going to be. Finally met Maggie in person (met her in this site). After...

Here’s my blog from yesterday…Zubiri to Pamplona. It was a really hot day but ok in the shade with a breeze. Not too many hills. Be sure and stop at cafe La Parada in...
