Kelly - great question! for me it would have to be le Puy to St. Jean - yes it is less cheap than Spanish ones ... but there are quite a few (lots - plenty!) regular auberges, and quite a few pilgrims and, and this is the thing Kelly - it is in France.
France, Kelly - it is in France!
France! to walk through France ..... so green so ... olivey, so .. errmm .. French? ... Kelly, when you get old and withered like the last prune in a long-forgotten cardboard container of dried prunes and end up sitting on the park bench as the young and virile world struts by ... what would you like your memories to be? what would make you smile, and warm that wrinkled skin in memories of wild, warm, luxuriant, laughing, life? Surely the memory of a long long walk through a potent and herb-smelling, skin-sweating, rich, hot and vibrant French summer would count?
I rest my case ....... :wink:
