After 5 years, Lyn and I are heading back to do the whole Camino Frances. This time we are working at getting aware from the touristy side of things.

Left Logrono 6.45 am arrived Navarrete 11.45am
12.5ks today. It is our rest day.
Very little signposts to show the way out of Navarete this morning. It took 45 minutes to get out to the city fringe. We walked mostly on paved footpaths today, very hard on our feet. We need to get some washing up to date and have time to rejuvenate.
We have noticed that the locals are very helpful, and even though the language barrier is there, we get ourselves understood. Lots of laughter.
We are managing with our packs really we now we don't have the intense heat.もっと詳しく
Another village on a steep hillside.
All the churches are massive, and the decorations inside are over the top.
While we waited for our accommodation to open, we had a delicious lunch, bacon, and eggs. Every pilgrim meal consists of hot chips with a piece of meat, not inviting at all.
We are staying at Bein Camino Hostal in a private room with proper beds and our own bathroom, with a full-size towel. It is glorious.
We had just finished dinner when the thunderstorm and rain started. We can hear rolling thunder, love it.もっと詳しく
旅行者That sounds amazing, so good to get an unexpectedly treat like your room WITH OWN BATHROOM. Your reward for making it safely to a quarter of the way.
Left Navarrete 6.45 arrived Azfroa 12 noon
14k today.
Lyn and I have been through the most incredible thunderstorm we have ever had, thunder, ⛈️ lightning 🌩 hail. The lightning was red in colour. The rain fell in torrents, thank goodness we managed to get our ponchos on before it hit us. We did turn back for a while, then realised it was moving away from where we were heading.
We managed to get to Ventosa, where we caught a taxis to Njaera and then walked in the rain to Azfroa, where we will stay the night.もっと詳しく
Left Azfroa 6.50 am arrived at Granon 1.50 pm.
21ks
As usual, we left in the dark and, at the beginning, very little signs to show us the way, but we made it. It was a low steep climb on an overcast day. Once we reached the top, the terrain was rolling. Had a bit to eat at San Domingo before carrying on. Found a pharmacy and got something for my hayfever.
This part of Spain must be where they grow Sunflowers for everybody. They are everywhere.
We are both tired, so we have decided to lie in tomorrow, so the alarm is set for 6.30 am instead of 6 am.もっと詳しく
旅行者Everywhere you go is another stunning vista or view or historic village. All are so beautiful.
