    CDG to Montparnasse - A Question of Timing

    We spend the first night in Paris. If you have no delays leaving the states or going thru custom's and getting into Paris, you'll be cutting it close.

    Jacotrans -ruined backpack

    I've abused backpack's on Camino's over the years. I've never had an issue like this. What brand of pack is it, if I may ask? One strap maybe but for both straps to rip from the seam sounds more like a manufacturing problem. Hope you make out better on your Camino.

    Which towns in the meseta can I bus to Leon from?

    Why do so many people want to skip the Meseta? I never understood this. I understand time restraints but....two separate times we've gone just to walk the Meseta. Only place I've ever been where you could walk and hear nothing.

    Traveling separate from group on Day 1

    You could get a ride to Orrrison and begin from there. From there to Roncesvalles is very doable in a medium day

    Trip insurance for the Camino

    If you are of a retired age on the US, medicare will cover 80% of health care if needed. Never was concerned, perhaps I should have been. With that said I haven't a clue to a good provider.

    One way ticket

    We've flown into Dublin with one way tickets and the a cheap commercial flight into Paris and never had an issue. But I'm not sure I can answer that definitely.

    How to get to the Camino from the U.S. - Atlanta to SJPDP and Santiago to Atlanta.

    I would suggest flying.. ;-) We've always found it easier to fly into Paris and train to SJPDP. and leave via Madrid. It works for us out of the DC area.
