Today was sort of like the last two days with one big difference, tonight we will be in Pamplona!
There were steps down
At the bottom of the steps there was a town which had no cafe or bar open so we had disgustingly sweet vending machine coffee.
There were some lovely flat bits
with reflection photo opportunities
D2 was on Mama watch, giving D1 the chance to walk ahead and stretch out her legs for a while
We stopped at a lovely cafe for a very welcome coffee/ hot chocolate and tortilla
With 8 kms to go I did a little yay! happy dance, oh foolish, foolish one!
“Take this! ” said the Camino, and added a few more ups and downs as well!
Trek etiquette: If you are going to zig zag up or down a section of track, check first to see if there is anyone behind! Just saying……..
Eventually we made it, D1 who has an awful cold, collapsed into bed and slept for a few hours while D2 and I sat in the sun, drank beer and ate patatas bravas.
A pilgrim is grateful: D1 was grateful she made it to the Hostel and could sleep!
Went to 8am Anzac Service at the 19th battalion memorial up the hill recently and thought of you on previous pilgrimage. Lovely service and as always very humbling. Told the story of an Australian bull terrier that sailed with troops from Wellington and stayed with them for about six years.
Lovely story and inspirational, like you three. Luff
