    Camino Baztan: Is a credencial available in Bayonne?

    Celebrating my old age

    70 is quite young! IMHO!!! I'm a good few years past that and same age friends and I are still tramping along various caminos Just keep on going at your own pace. Great for body and mind.

    What to do with three weeks after Santiago?

    I recommend walking 7 days Santiago to Finistere to Lires and Muxia. Portuguese routes are great as well.

    Need to pause for 3 days

    All good suggestions above. Recently a lady on the Portuguese Camino had to take a similar rest. She stayed at an albergue and received treatment. Her son walked on alone, then the lady took transport to meet her son 5 days later. They both walked into Santiago and completed their camino together

    Booking bus to Finisterre

    In Santiago there's a massive new bus station by the train station. I'm sure you can get your tickets there. In Finistère there's a kiosk with someone on duty à shortwhile before bus departure and tickets can be purchased there. The bus in May departed a little further up the hill.

    A wonderful story.

    What next after the Variante Espiritual?

    For a non Santiago arrival try the Camino del Baztan. Stunningly peaceful and beautiful. Very few people, locals or pilgrims. Bayonne to Pamplona. You could always continue on the Camino Frances from Pamplona.

    Crowded, yes even on a Thursday afternoon when I travelled and stood with rucksack on my back all the way to the airport. ( no giving up a seat to an older passenger. )

    My Camino regret!

    Samos was delightful even though I tripped on a pavement. Left Pamplona late so missed Eunate had a rendez-vous with OH at Peunte la Reine so had to rush although was 2 hrs late and we only met by some fluke. After the Baztan which ends in Pamplona I thought we might walk out to Eunate but we...

    Now I understand...

    I detest UHT although I think modern day versions are better than they used to be, Black coffee for me every time as soon as I leave my island.

    Ok I´m home, I want to leave.

    Ask not what your town, city , country can do for you but look and see what you can perhaps contribute to surroundings and people around you.
