Hi I know this has been done a lot but can someone send me a link to fwd on gear to santiago/Ivar. Dodgy internet plus cant work my phone!! Will be in sjpdp this afternoon- saturday. Will that be a problem.

Also need to mail an urgent letter back to Aust. Assume i have to wait till monday. Is their a post office in zubiri?

Thanks. Your help is appreciate.


Omg.... Im going to be in st jean this afternoon!!
 
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
Waay cheaper to send it via Correos than from SJPdP.
There is a Correos Office in Burguette but closed on Saturdays. No post office in Zubiri.
The next one is in Huerte (if you take the river way before Pamplona) or in Villava (the suburb of Pamplona). And then of course Pamplona. Maybe use Express Bouricot just to send it to Pamplona and from there to Ivar by Correos?

St James' Way - Self-guided 4-7 day Walking Packages, Reading to Southampton, 110 kms
LaPoste/French Post Office in Saint Jean Pied de Port at 1 rue de la Poste is closed on Saturday afternoons.


However for sending your letter early on Monday in Spain there is a Correos/Post Office in Burguete

Correos

I posted ahead a heavy, thick canvas bag that protected my backpack as it was going in the hold of the airplane. It was four days after leaving SJPdP that I found a post office that would take a parcel in Gares/Puente La Reina. I had to hang around for the post office to open but at least I was first in the queue. At the other end in Santiago you need to know where to find Ivar, it isn't the easiest place to find! However, once I did find his office (and when it was open) it was an easy job to find my parcel.
