Saint Jean Pied du Port

I arrived in Saint Jean about 5:00 pm last night.  I am staying at a wonderful hostel that is owned by a wonderful Dutch couple.  It is so beautiful here words cannot describe it.  There are many cyclists here in the Pyrenees.  I have been taking pictures, but I haven't quite figured out how to upload them from the internet cafe yet. My phone has run out of "au juice" so until I can get it charged up, no phone calls will be made. The hostel is Le Esprit du Chemin, meaning the Spirit of the Camino in French.  I would highly reccomend it to anyone who comes to Saint Jean.  We had a wonderful meal last night, and a great breakfast too.  I hand washed my clothes this morning, and they are hanging to dry.  The sun is shining and the sky is clear.  A perfect day to walk the Camino, but I am taking a rest day, and will enjoy the little town today.  I love France!  I am anxious to begin walking, and I have already found several items in my pack that I will ship to Santiago.  Lighter is better.  I will check in as often as I can.  Love to all. joni
