You'll be a day ahead of me! I'm doing 2 overnights in SJPDP, arriving on the 27th but not starting until the 29th. Planning on no view, so I can be pleasantly surprised if there is one along the Valcarlos route. Perhaps we'll bump into each other. Buen Camino!
I'm glad you mentioned these two things specifically because I think these would be the two things that would be most awkward for me. Too much sensory overload and feeling like I have to keep a conversation going with the people seated next to me who I probably won't be able to hear too well bc...
I'm debating when in April to start because I really want to be able to go through the Napoleon route. Definitely after Easter too. Still trying to find the best shoes. And like you, @bobegg , it'll be my first, and am excited and apprehensive.
