How's it going Peter....enjoyHi, we went over 2 days ago it was great. Wish you a Buen Camino, Peter.
Thanks Don for the info, I'm going to start at 27th to Orrison... I hope the weather improves. Where can I check local weather ot its just tv news? I usually check the weather at http://www.accuweather.com/en/fr/saint-jean-pied-de-port/161867/daily-weather-forecast/161867I don't want to rain (or snow) on your parade for the end of April 2015 but there is a current weather forecast out there for the days between 27 to 29 April predicting freezing temperatures down to 1300 meters, with highs and lows at sea level of 11/12c and rain on all three days. There is no forecast available beyond the 29th. It is very changeable this time of year, so who really knows this far ahead.
Hi Peter, I too am starting on the 27th to Orrison. I'm sure I will see you there. Or in St. Jean. I have a question how are you getting to St. Jean? I'm flying into Biarritz on 26 at 15h15. I'm trying to connect up with a ride to Saint Jean. Let me know if you have room in your transport, if you're going that way. If not I will see you on the trail. P. S. This is my first Camino and I'm quite excited. I fly into Paris tomorrow for three nights then I'm on my way.

Thanks for the reply Peter. I am preparing to travel Vancouver, B.C. Canada today and start my journey to Paris. I will spend three days in Paris first. Should help with jet lag and see some amazing sights. I want to go to The Cathedral of Notre Dame. I understand this is another starting point for the Camino.my plan is to make it to St.Jean and stay there on 26 April. It all depends on getting transport from Biarritz. Yes It would be nice to walk to Orisson with a veteran walker of the Camino.i had hope to see some of St. Jean before starting the walk to Orisson. Safe travels for both of us. Buen Camino. MLHello Margaret, I chose a different way to get into the Saint Jean. I'm flying to Barcelona on 26th at the evening, then I'm taking a night bus to Irun. It's the same bus for pilgrims who are starting Camino del Norte. I'm going to cross border between Spain and France to Hendaye. I have a ticket for a train / bus from Hendaye to Saint Jean Pied de Port (Hendaye - Bayonne - Cambo les Bains - Saint Jean Pied de Port). I hope only that bus from Barcelona will be on time at Irunbecause I have to walk 3 km to Hendaye to get my train at 6:56.
I'm planning to start the Camino around noon from Pilgrim's Office (if my bus will be on time at Irun). I can meet you there and we can walk to Orisson if you want (of course if the weather is good and they will say at the Office that the trail is open). Jean-Jacques from Refuge Orisson wrote me that is 2,5-3 hours of walking. So we could reach Orisson before evening meal.
It's mine 4th Camino and I feel the same thrill of emotions inside meI just cannot wait to be on the road again. Buen Camino. P.
Hello Canadian dreamer. That was my original plan, to fly direct to Paris and then to Biarritz. But I've never been to Paris so I thought I would give it three days and also help alleviate some of my jet lag. I will be a slow walker too. I have booked my second night in Orisson. 27 April. I've given myself 6 1/2 weeks to do the Camino. Yes I have a Camino Forum badge on my backpack and a little Canadian flag and two AA badges. Just heading for the airport now. Trying not to think of later today or tomorrow, just trying to stay in the moment. Blessings on your (our) journey and hope we connect. Buen Camino, Margaret Lynn@Margaret Lynn - Buen Camino. I am travelling from Toronto tomorrow, but connecting through Paris directly to Biarritz. I will be in Orisson on the 25th. You will probably pass me after a few days of walking. Watch out for me - I have a forum patch and a Canadian pilgrim patch on my backpack. Let's prepare for all weather - and hope for beautiful, sunny days!
Hi Fiona99... where did you book this bus ticket? I am having trouble finding this information. Did you go to Cambo des Bains by train and then bus from there?On the bus from BAyonne to SJPdP .... No train at the moment it appears.....so excited
Currently the train service from Bayonne to SJPdP is suspended. There is a SNCF bus that leaves the train station in Bayonne using the same schedule and price posted on their site. The last time I was in Bayonne with a friend who was taking the bus it was loaded very quickly.Hi Fiona99... where did you book this bus ticket? I am having trouble finding this information.

Hi Biarritzdon! Here is a screen shot of the ticket I will possibly be purchasing. Does this look right to you? Also... I posted in my own thread but since you are here... do you think it is a good idea to start my Camino the morning I arrive in SJPdP? I have seen people post that they are starting at noon, but I would like to start right away. Any advice? Por favor?!Currently the train service from Bayonne to SJPdP is suspended.
