Trinidad de Arre/Pamplona to Uterga
Left 8am arrived in Pampanga at 9.30am and at Uterga 12.30pm.
We had out ponchos on as we left Arre, and it certainly felt a lot cooler, thank goodness. It rained off and on as we made it into Pamplona. Went to 10 am mass at the cathedral it is very Gothic. It was still raining when we came out and because it was a Sunday everything was closed. We decided we would take a taxi to get us to the steepest point and then make our way down the invlibe to Utergia BUT the taxi driver to us way past where we wanted to go and so we got him to take us back to where we intended to stop. The taxi trip wasn't cheap but wait, there's more. I can't sit down with my cell in my pocket, and I bet you can guess what happened, yep, left the cell in the taxi, which cost $$$$s for them to bring it to me. Dam, I should have brought my small kiwi bag, but now I have to find another way to carry it, the pockets in my shirts are too small. But the lesson is learned. We are in a comfortable Elbergue with 18 others in our room tonight.Læs mere
RejsendeKia ora Charmaine. Oh no no no. What a pain in the you know what regarding your phone. But thankfully you got it back, which is the main thing. Everywhere you walk is so full of history. Makes you realise how ‘young’ NZ is. I hope you slept well and are ready for today’s adventures. Beautiful day in Beachlands today. X
RejsendeOh bad luck about losing your phone and having to get it back. It's wonderful you are taking the time to walk around and see all the things (everything!!) which are new and unknown to nz eyes. Glad to hear it's slightly cooler, buen camino.
RejsendeFor example Charmaine, that photo with the scallop and other shell decorations. Done so beautifully. Where would you see that in nz? (Well not counting that little house in Bluff, stuffed full but not beautiful.)
