Saint Jean Pied de Port

After hours and hours of traveling we all finally made it and met in Saint Jean Pied de Port. It is a beautiful small town in Southern France, at the base of the Pyrenees and the start of our Camino
.  We start our walk tomorrow morning. The plan is for an "easy" day, walking to the refuge at Orrison, about 12 km but gaining about 1200m in altitude. It is an idyllic setting and we are very much looking forward to it. Hopefully, the rain and clouds dissipate so we can enjoy the view.  I'll post more from there.
Buen Camino!
