Well, I got of my Arce and this forum and went to my travel agent and bought 2 tickets to Paris!
Flying Vancouver to Paris and exiting Barcelona to Vancouver
April 27th to June 15th
British Airways $1330 return taxes and fees in, which is good because of the different enter and exit points!
3 days in Paris
1 day in SJDP
29 hiking days with 1 additional day in Pamplona and Leon to rest up
1 day in Santiago
Fly to Barcelona
14 days on the Costa Blanca then homeword bound!

I must say its refreshing when you actually lock into your trip, now I can lock my Paris and Barcelona hotels ahead of time!

Thx
Clint

Well Done Clint,

You'll be surprised how quickly 6 months comes & goes.......
Maybe spend more than one day in Santiago(if only to make sure you see the 'swing' & the roof of the Cathederal is a wonderful tour, & you get to see where pilgrim used to sleep & burn their clothes) & find the restaurants that people talk about.

Buen Camino
David
 
Thx I may stay longer, we're not booking any hotels until the end so we have some flexibility
 
Altus BALI Sleeping bag liner
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Whoa, this is great! Paris, the Camino, Barcelona, and then the coast. Well done! Agree with above, spend some time in SDC as you'll want to see others you've met along the way come in as well.

Very happy for you!
 
We're Camino twins!

I just bought my tickets as well, flying Vancouver - Barcelona, Madrid - Vancouver. Going a little earlier but I'm spending a bit of time in different parts of Spain before the Camino... I'll be setting out of St-Jean probably on or about May 1!

See you there!
Lindsey
 
Oh and mine was British Airways too, about $1140 though bought em last week! I was a little ticked off though because at the end of November tickets everywhere were just $1030! Then they shot up. Was lucky to find a student fare through a travel agent though and get a few hundred dollars in savings!

Hahaha that would be very true if she were mine! Alas I believe she's happily prancing about a field in somewhere in France at this point in time.

I think I met that donkey too! I think she had her name on the strap across her nose but I can't remember what it was.

Someone told me that they were struggling with injury and the donkey's owner offered to take her pack. She was concerned about over-burdening the donkey, but the guy said that HE would carry it, not the donkey. Buen Camino!

p.s. I think I might have met you Lindsey, somewhere around Rabanal. Were you walking with your Dad?

Ah yes, Praline. I was walking with 2 Newfoundlander peregrinas. We walked down the street in Rabanal together. Buen Camino!

That's just awesome - Kate and Jana! Small world, they were like my big sisters on the Camino. Love em to death! Was that when they had Snickers bars to give us after their 38 km day to catch up?

Yes, I saw the tickets 2 weeks ago for $1080 return but I think I had to pay a little more because of different entry and exit points!
All considering $1300 ish is a good price for us, a great airline and most important minimal stopover waits and great flight times.
We almost went KLM for more money, long stopovers in Amsterdam and super early flights out!
We'll be on the trail around May 1 so we'll use up all the rain for you so you'll have a dry Camino by May 15th
Have fun!!!
Safe travels
Clint
