Two days off 🤗

Now that we've reached the foothills of the Pyrenees we're going to take 2 days out of the saddle as we hitch a ride over this mountain range. ( you didn't seriously think we could bike over them did you ?😳)


Well, we did bike a km down the road to the station . The train goes across to Bayonne, then another smaller one heads up to St Jean pied de port.








It gave us 2 hrs to look around Bayonne, then we crammed into this little train, standing room only. I felt a bit guilty as our bikes were taking up 4 seats.


St Jean Pied de Port.
Pretty little town with a wall around it.





There's a special Pilgrims office to give out information on the Camino way. 1000's walk it each year. 465 from NZ last year I noticed.





As we walked the wall we could see our hotel ( with the dormers on the roof )
And the view from our window gave us withdrawal symptoms . Tennis courts and a rugby field 😬
