Camino in France – Last Day!

Camino in France – Just Say “No”
Day 34 – Eauze to Nogaro “No, we don’t eat meat,” Reg fibbed to our server upon hearing our dinner choices….duck cooked this way, or duck cooked that way. Neither of us like duck, no matter how it’s cooked.When we booked our trip, our travel company reserved all our rooms for us with dinner and…
