    Santiago to Lisbon

    I made this trip just a few weeks ago. I got a coach from SDC to Porto and then a train from Porto to Lisbon. I stopped for the night in Porto in between. I got the coach to Porto because it was more direct than the train - you have to catch a train from SDC to Vigo and then change trains for...

    I went to Paris for a few days first and then got a train from Montparnasse station to Bayonne, then got what was meant to be a train (there was a replacement bus in September 2014) to Saint Jean Pied de Port.

    Trains Bayonne to SJPdP current 2014 timetable

    I am not sure; I know when I booked Itzalpea for my dates there were only one or two rooms left, and I booked six months in advance. So perhaps it does fill up a long time in advance. Having said that, I suspect that Booking.com would not have all Itzalpea's rooms on their website. It may be...

    Trains Bayonne to SJPdP current 2014 timetable

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Gemsbokkie, but the 'State of traffic' page on the TER Aquitaine website (last updated on 27 May) says that the replacement bus service is still running on ligne 62.

    Getting a hometown blessing

    Here in Sydney there is a church of St James right in the middle of the city centre :) I don't know about a blessing but I have been told that I can get a stamp for my credencial from there before I leave Australia. I think this will be a nice way to start, so I am going to get a credencial...

    How long does the train from Paris to St Jean take?

    The train from Montparnasse Station in Paris to Bayonne direct takes a little over five hours. You then have to get a connecting train from Bayonne to St Jean. The train from Bayonne to St Jean ordinarily takes one hour and 20 minutes, but there were heavy rains in March which caused a landslide...
