Day 6 Gernika to Bilbao 146.95 km

This was a day of very rough trail conditions ....mud and rocks!

Before I explain I want to let you know that every day I see a black cat🥺 Today it was a ceramic one in a shop I passed this am....Harley's spirit♥️

Great day and only saw maybe 6 pilgrims total.
I have taken shots of the different trail surfaces to give you an idea of what we walk on.
We went through a forest that had used heavy equipment.

Trees today were eucalyptus and pine. Some pine trees are dying and I wonder if they have pine beetle here??

We didn't go thru any towns.
About 12 km in A lady had a stand by the edge of the road with fresh fruit, nuts ( freshly roasted off their trees) .What a treat!!!

I also saw my first fig tree today!
Very hot High 20's.

I have added on a better map of the stage I walked as the one on my Garmin isn't great.

Took the train to Bilbao from Lemaza as there was no place to stay there or on the next stage.

Oh and I tried my first pinxto. They are like tappas.

I lost my sunglasses but got another pair luckily🤗Читать далее
