As everyone knows by now, John & I are off to Spain on 25 April to walk the Pilgrim Trail.....800kms....from St Jean Pied de Port in the French Pyrenees to Santiago in Spain. We fly into Paris on 26 April & leave Paris at lunchtime on 27th to travel by train to Bayonne.
We'll have 2 nights in Bayonne then travel by train again to St Jean. One night there & on 30th April we start walking!!!
The only other confirmed date is that we fly out of London on Fri 20 June & arrive home 22 June.
The time is getting scarily close now. We've got Mum's 80th birthday party today then we can really concentrate in the fine tuning of what we're taking..............keeping in mind the weight limits we hope to achieve...........we want to be carrying a max of 10 kgs including 2 litres of water each.....so really a max of 8 kgs in our packs. Not doing too bad so far...........got mine only up to 5.5kgs.....haven't weighed John's yet.

I'm awed by the challenge you've got in front of you! I know you two have been working and training hard for this very interesting holiday and hope it's everything you imagine it could be.
I'm looking forward to hearing all about it. We've checked out some of your journey on Google Earth and it looks really interesting.
Love
Looks like I'll be organised to reply by the time you go...how exciting now you're counting down the days!!
Hope the organising is getting there. Talk to you soon
