Thanks ranthr--this might be a really good option for my dad and his knees! i will check with our hotel and maybe they can direct us to this alternate route. And great to know that day 3 is long rather than too challenging. Now if I can just get packed!
thanks all for your great advice! I leave tomorrow for Paris and from there by train to Le Puy (IF all goes well with flights and trains--fingers crossed!)
I am staying at L'oustal de parent and like all my hotels really except not finding much in Le Puy except the Ibis Styles.

It sounds like I can arrange the bag transfer once I get there with the hotels. I'm also...
Yes, I think the baggage transfer will be key with my dad--he did that in Spain and it was a big help. He is a dedicated walker, although does need some coffee every few hours and I'm having trouble figuring out if we will find some towns with little cafes along the way. Do you think I need to...
I am traveling with my dad (age 75) and my daughter (age 17) for a short trip in late September. My dad has walked the Camino Frances and the Porto with my son and wants to do something with my daughter before she goes off to college next year. We only have a week, so are planning on flying into...
