Hello to all.
Hopefully will be doing the Camino Francais with my wife in Spring or Fall of 2014. We will be not as conventional as most, but as everyone says "It is our Camino" and we will walk it they way we want. So we will be staying in private accommodation (hotels, etc). No offense to anyone about the alberques, it is just not where we want to stay (our walk, remember). We will also have our Jack Russell with us. Now before everybody starts in about taking our dog, know that he is a hearty and hard hiker who is very used to 20 km or more hikes in the Colorado Rockies and in the Austrian Alps. Also we are not trying to do 25 km or more a day (we will have plenty of time). I have been having great success finding accommodations along the Way who will accept dogs so do not believe we will experience issues there. Have heard all the stories about working dogs and strays along the Way as well, Thor is a stalwart, we will have our staffs...no worries.
We are looking forward to this journey very much!!!
