Leaving in one week

[UptownJames]

I have my airline tickets and my pack is ready to go. I'm leaving southern California on 26/08/13 and arriving in Paris next morning. Will spend the night in Bayonne and take the train to SJPDP Wednesday morning. Have an extra bed in Bayonne if any one needs a place to spend Tuesday night.

Wow! It seems that no matter what day you leave there are going to be other pilgrims also leaving. Buen Camino to all of you and hope to see some of you as me pass me by. I'll be the retired mailman looking like he should be walking up to everybody's door...UptownJames

So excited!!! I fly from ATL to Madrid on 8/26. I'll take the train to Leon where I'll start my Camino. Everyone says that Leon is a great place to explore, but I have a feeling that I'll be antsy and want to start walking.

Leaving Leon can be QUITE dreary. Read this earlier Forum thread describing the pleasant more rural alternative camino route going west from the town of Virgen del Camino where there is an extraordinary contemporary church. >> http://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/train-tickets-and-weather.18777/. Don't miss the church!
