Walkabout in Le Puy

Posted on by

Finally made it to Le Puy….

Before picking the sisters up we had to get out of St Etienne after many u-turns and 25 minutes we were back at the hotel.

Off we go take 2 was more successful and we managed to find our other passengers with the help of the onboard navigation.

Arrived at Hertz at 12.15 to find it closed for lunch, back at 2.00.

Left the car behind and found our accomodation, then back to return the vehicle.

After returning we went walk about for the afternoon. Getting our passport and climbing the virgin Mary.

Chemin du Puy – Getting ready

Posted on by

A little over three weeks to go before we start our walk and it’s about time I started to get ready for this walk.

Well my pack has been nearly packed for a month now, waiting for me to start training. As we will be walking 800 kms with our packs perhaps I should have started a few months ago. But like everything else there is always tomorrow.

I have setup my blogs for while we are away, all I’ll have to do is remember to start & stop the tracking app on my phone each day and then upload the file. I may even add a few words and some photos. 

It’s been raining most of today, so now would have been a good day to try the wet weather gear. Well there’s always tomorrow.
