Camino Frances - the path Rodney and I walked the Camino Frances from St Jean Pied de Port in France to Santiago de Compostella. From hundreds of photos, we share just a few - a flavour of our experiences walking this very ancient path trodden by millions before us. Rather than being chronological, I'll group them into various themes. Here's the first, some photos of the path we followed (there are many alternatives) for 800 kilometres starting the week after Easter and arriving in Santiago at the end of April. From St Jean Pied de Port, up through the Pyrenees via Valcarlos and the Puerto de Ibaneta - the Route de Napoleon was closed by snow. And into the snow. The top of the pass. Through snowy woods from Roncevalles to Larrasoana. Crossing the boundary from Navarra into Castille and Leon. Through Riojan vineyards. Always heading west. Early starts meant towns and villages were still asleep. Sunrises were behind us in the East. Crossing the border into Galicia. The highest point on the Camino, Punta Alto, 1,515 m. Following signposts along the way. Under maize stores in Galician villages. Amazing wild flowers. April showers. Galician chestnut woods. To the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
