St. Jean Pied de Port

I stayed my first night in France in St. Jean Pied de Port at the Maison Ziberoa, a lovely B&B that was built in 1779. I will stay here one more night before starting my walk. The owner of the Maison, Marie Josee, made a delicious breakfast with at least 10 homemade jams! We also had sheep milk yoghurt. Yum!

I went out this morning to get supplies for my lunch tomorrow. I was walking on the sidewalk and almost got run over when a grandmother steered her car onto the sidewalk to drop off her granddaughter. She slammed on her brakes as I jumped out the way. She looked pretty shook up but not nearly as shook as me! I haven't even started my walk and I've already had a near death experience.
