  3. Thank you for posting the statistics, and different and more detailed than peregrinossantiago.es. An interesting trend is that there are more pilgrims walking from St Jean PdP this year than in Año Santo! (2.494 in 2010; 2701 this year) I think it is the same for the total so far. So it seems that pilgrims do the camino Frances in one go, (not) more than ever (thou) :)
