Hello again,
Three of us will be heading to Paris in early May. We will overnight, then take the train from Paris to Bayonne, then on to SJPP. I expect we'll start the camino in the first week of May. We are planning to have two other family members fly to Paris in early June, then travel to Sarria to meet up with us and complete the last of our journey to Santiago. I have some questions:
What train station do we take in Paris to Bayonne?
Is May 6 to June 6 enough time to get to Sarria from SJPP without pushing ourselves? We want to enjoy the walk (and one of us is a little short legged)
What is the best way/ route to get from Paris to Sarria?
Is six days enough to go from Sarria to Santiago without rushing?
Should I just go ahead and post our dates on the site calendar for travel?
Am I correct that we can just start walking from SJPP and only need to get our camino passport from the compestella office, or from the albergue we stay at that night...that there is no requirement to register with anyone that we are doing the camino...we just go and do it...is that correct?
As a last question, how many euros would you suggest we carry? The sites indicate there are ATMs along the way, but warn they often do not work.
Thanks,
JeanneA
