    SJPDP to Orisson?

    I agree no need to rush. Enjoy SJPDP it’s pretty place and start afresh after a good nights sleep. That first climb to Orisson is your first test of the Camino. Enjoy each day you won’t regret that you took the time. Buen Camino

    SJPDP to Orisson?

    Finding alburques already booked???

    Looking ahead we are finding, as we head out very soon, many of suggested alburques etc are already booked.

    Wool socks

    My husband has developed a bad reaction to merino wool socks even using liner. Any suggestions on ‘what next to use instead of merino wool’. Leaving in 2 weeks to walk Camino Frances. Thank you.

    Does anyone have Orisson's PayPal address?

    You can go to top of your PayPal invoice you were sent go to top right I believe and you will see credit cards listed there. It took us awhile too figure it out but it worked. Best of luck.
