Hi Margaret:
Thank you so much again. All is clear now. Will take the bus if time allows, if not, a cab.
Falcon269: Do you remember what the cab fare was, approximately? Just in case....
Thanks!

Hi Margaret:
Thanks for your quick response! My flight arrives at noon at CdG. I have bought a ticket for the 2:30 TGV directly to Bayonne. Will spend the night there and continue to SJPdP the next day at 11:41. I was under the impression that there are transfer buses to Montparnasse.

Hi everyone:
My departure is getting really close Sept. 11! I have been trying to find clues as to how to find the transfer buses at CDG to take me to Gare Montparnasse. What about signage at the airport? I am flying into Paris via Amsterdam, arriving at Terminal 2. I don't have a lot of time to...
Hi Sillydoll: Thank you so much for your explanation re albergues on the camino. I have been able to print 2 pages of this list, unable to print the rest (so far), will figure it out. Handy to have! I will send my pack to Orisson from a hotel in SJPdP, that much I know! If one arrives at the...
Sillydoll: Can the backpacks be send to an albergue? or only to private pensions etc.? Seeing we can't make reservations at albergues, what do you mean by your statement?
Also, on a different topic, could you tell me the size of a pilgrim passport?
Thanks!!

Hi Maxthegirl:
I have to transfer from Charles de Gaulle to Montparnasse station from where I will take the TGV to Byonne. I plan on spending the night there and take the train the next morning to SJPdP.
My first day on the Way will be Sept. 14th.
Buen Camino!

Hi Carolann from Philly!
I will be flying into Paris on Sept. 12 and I'll be on my way from SJPdP to Orisson on Sept. 14. Hope to see you on the way.

Very interesting question, Annakappa. I will start at SJPP on Sept. 14 and never really questioned my starting point. It just was to be. Now, however, I am questioning my reasoning for starting there. I guess my thought was that I had to do it the hard way and no short cuts allowed! I too will...
Hi Malcolrobert:
I too will leave Canada (Calgary) on Sept. 11 and fly into Paris and train onto Bayonne. I will start walking to Orisson on the 14th. What about you? See you on "the way"!
