    Starting Le Puy on Sat

    It's been a tiring adventure getting from my home in Hamilton Canada to Le Puy. A bus, two plans and 3 trains. Got here safely, dropped off my backpack and just bought my poles and credential. Time for a much needed break before crashing tonight.

    Bordeaux to Irun

    God willing I'd like to start the Norte this spring with one week from Bordeaux to Irun. I tend to average 25-30 km/day with some elevation changes. Reasonable? Recommended stages?!
