Day2. Walk part of the camino

So after having sat in the lovely park round the Citadel writing this morning's footprint I started walking. There were metal shells in the path indicating the camino, so didn't have to look at the map any longer. There were places where a shell had been stolen, but instead of putting down a new one, the empty space was just filled with cement and in one place not even that.

Since I was at the cathedral I went in once more and discovered the cloisters and the cathedral museum which is most interesting. An amazing quotation from Dr Martin de Azpilcueta (16th century) about kings's power belonging to the community. At the other end of the intellectual spectrum you find out about the "Walking Giants" of Pamplona. In the cloisters all along the walkway are numbered slabs, always three in a row across the walk. I think they are tombs, but there was nobody to ask.

Walked about a lot, photographed an amazing gate, and finally went home almost the same way I had come. Forgot to track myself. Will start this seriously when I start walking tomorrow.Read more
