Well, as Christina will atest, I can be my own worst enemy.
Despite thinking last night that I´d take a day to rest my weary feet, I arose this morning feeling rested, with feet that didn´t actually hurt too bad… and so… I soldiered on towards Estella, about 24kms down the road.… [Read more]

Well, I managed to quite literally, ´hobble´to Pamplona, and am staying at the ´Jesus e Maria´albergue (7 euro)… bed #5 if you´re looking for me sweetie…
I am really enjoying the journey… walking for the most part in solitude, but chatting to people occasionally along the way, but at the moment, my feet feel like hamburger… blistered and bruised like they´ve never been before… my hiking boots are toast… (hmmmm… hamburger and toast would taste good right now…) 🙂

From St Jean Pied de Port to Roncesvalles (31.7 km)

I´m a little behind but what´s new. I see that Chris has posted a blog entry already (isn´t he speedy!) which is great. I´ve completed my first day too, but before I write about that I wanted to tell you about getting to St.… [Read more]
Well, it was tough going at times, but I managed the 27kms to the first stop through the mountains in roughly 7 hours.
Passed Christina at the 7.5 km mark, even though I left a half hour later in a vain attempt to get my hair cut before starting… the barber was closed on Tuesdays.… [Read more]
