So the hotel I managed to book online in Paris turned out to be really nice in a very handy location, near the station where I’ll catch the TGV tomorrow. I intended this stop in Paris to be a kind of transition between home and the Camino and also to get over the jet lag.
It’s 3 a.m. and I’m lying in bed in Saint Jean, not able to sleep. Outside, the rain is pouring down and I can hear it pattering on the roof. I wonder if the rain will still be this strong when I start to walk, but I’m not too worried because I have really good waterproof clothing.
As I came into the next village for a cup of coffee, struggling up for the last part of the hill, I looked behind me and saw a familiar character. Walking in his white habit, chatting away with other pilgrims, I couldn’t make out the face from the distance, but it had to be Father Bart from the USA.

Today was a very pleasant walk, about 22 kilometers, but again I covered it surprisingly quickly, I planned to arrive at about 4 o’clock but actually got here at about 3. The walk was not too physically challenging, across rolling hills of vineyards and fields of barley and wheat.
