Camino in France – Last Day!
Day 44 – Larceveau to Saint-Jean- Pied-de-Port Our last day of walking. It’s hard to believe we’ve come so far. So many memories. Reg is working on his end-of-trip wrap-up post with all the facts, figures and details I don’t bother myself with. If you have questions, you’ll find the answers there! I’ll repost it…

Camino in France – Are We the Only Ones Here?
Day 43 – Saint Palais to Larceveau We checked in to our reserved Larceveau hotel room Sunday afternoon. As our host showed us to our room, we began to feel that maybe, just maybe we were the only overnight guests. We had prepaid dinner and breakfast, and because the restaurant would be closed at 6:00…

Camino in France – A Day Without Highs
Day 26 – Moissac to Auvillar The scenery was somewhat repetitive, but the path was wonderfully flat. I can’t tell you what a relief that was for us. Steep climbs have been the daily norm since our first day out of Le Puy and have caused us to rack up a whopping 34,235 feet of…
