    Crowded Camino in the Holy Year?

    I stayed at Albergue Ultreia in Arzúa and it costed me 10 Euros, very nice, clean and modern facilities... And the fact that only 7 of us pilgrims staying in a place that could hold 30+ pilgrims was a plus... ¡Buen Camino! :arrow:

    Have anyone done some " training" before taking on camino

    :lol: Brilliant! "Laugh out loud" comment, indeed! With my Camino now less than a month away, I've increased my hiking distance and its frequency from 4 times a week to 6, which will be my norm, allowing my body a 'rest day' per week to wander about the largest cities on the Francés...

    TGV - Autocar connection in Bayonne

    Merci beaucoup, monsieur Falcon! Just practising the little French I know... :lol: I read that directive to future hospitaliers on the Accueil's website, but I was wondering if they really stay open that late. God bless them all for their commitment towards us pilgrims. ¡Buen Camino! :arrow:

    TGV - Autocar connection in Bayonne

    By any chance does anyone know if the 1509 Autocar from Bayonne to SJPdP will wait for the incoming TGV from Paris arriving at 1503. I don't mind missing that 1509 bus and wait for the 1812 one, but I'm afraid that the Accueil might close before I arrive in SJPdP. I went to their website but...

    Connection from Paris

    Sharon, I don't know the answer to your question and you don't mention when you'll be arriving in SJPdP, but I want to make you aware that train services between Bayonne and SJPdP are cancelled until the 30th of June 2010 for track repairs. A bus service will fill the itinerary instead and it...

    Raincoat-Poncho

    Margaret, Maybe instead of taking the TGV from Paris I should arrive in Madrid, stop by the Barrabes Store and then take the Renfe train to Pamplona... :lol: Just kidding! I know there are plenty of rain gear out there in the marketplace that could do just as good as the Altus, but just the...

    Raincoat-Poncho

    If I was a wagering man I would bet that crossing the Pyrenees in late April without some sort of rain gear is a bad idea, I was just looking for some "positive reinforcement" to go ahead and not to worry. 8) I did a bit of online research at the El Corte Inglés' website and they do not carry...

    Raincoat-Poncho

    I'm very interested in purchasing the Altus Atmospheric poncho, but I'm debating if I should hold on until I get into Pamplona and go to El Corte Inglés to buy one or to order it online, which will cost an arm and a leg to ship. But the million dollar question should be, is it worth risking...

    It looks like train services between Bayonne and SJPdP are canceled until the 30th of June 2010 due to renovations and repairs on the tracks. A scheduled bus service will run instead using a similar timetable as the train service...
