After a long flight and a long day of touring, we slept in and almost missed our train. But we made it! Another long day of travel; this time by trains. The first leg was Paris to Bordeaux, with only 10 minutes between trains we did not have time to tour any of the numerous vineyards we saw from the train. The next leg was Bordeaux to Bayonne. Our train from Bayonne was late and we only had 5 minutes to get to the right track- which we did, however when we got there we were told the train is full and we would have to wait 20 minutes for a bus to take us to SJPDP. While waiting for the bus we ended up having more than 45 minutes to meet and talk to the other pilgrims n the same situation. We arrived in St Jean, the start of our Camino hike, ate our first Pilgrim Dinner, walked the streets and along the Old CIty Wall. Looking forward to starting our walking tomorrow morning.
Glad to hear you made/found your connections and have arrived safely!!! We are thinking of you and will be praying for you along your journey. We will enjoy these pictures and live this through you. Thank you for sharing. No doubt you will meet some fabulous and interesting people this next 30 days. Safe travels.
