    The heat is back in force this week! Be careful out there.

    Heat Wave warning France, August 2023

    I'm in Saugues right now, and it has been brutal. I'm walking with a hiking umbrella, which helps a little. Whenever I introduce myself to pilgrims at the end of the day, about half of them say, "ah yes, Thom with the umbrella." 🤣

    Rocamadour Variant itinerary

    This is a follow-up (variant? 🤣) to Leigh Lorayne's query about the Célé Valley variant. I'm considering this route, and I'd appreciate any advice or feedback. This is the route and stages that appear in all three guidebooks I have access to at the moment (Cicerone, MMD, Litefoot). Based on...

    Planes and Trains in Lyon

    Thank you! I'll look it up and figure it out from there. I already have my train ticket from Lyon to Le Puy. I've given myself plenty of time to get through customs and make the connection. I'm spending one night in Le Puy, both the explore and to shake off the jet-lag.

    Planes and Trains in Lyon

    I've baked some extra days into my schedule with the idea that if all goes well, I can spend some days in Lyon prior to my flight home, and if things don't go well and I need to take extra days for rest or injury, then I will visit the city on a future trip.

    Planes and Trains in Lyon

    While I had planned on walking from Le Puy to Santiago in the Spring of 2024, circumstances intervened and I now find myself with plane tickets from Seattle to Lyon on August 15-16 of this year. Fun! I'm hoping somebody can help clarify for me how to get from the Aéroport de Saint-Exupéry to...

    Going guideless on the Le Puy?

    I'm also in the process of doing my research for walking the Via Podiensis (in 2024), and so far the best guide I've found is the Cicerone guide by @Dave. https://www.amazon.com/Camino-Santiago-Podiensis-Pyrenees-GR65/dp/178631102X/?tag=casaivar02-20...
