Zubiri to Arre. Rainy day trek

What a difference a day makes. We hiked through torrential rain and some thunder and lightning. By the end of the hike the sun was blazing down on us and other than our shoes we were all dry.
We hiked 17km in about 6 hrs including breaks.
Cecile hiked with us today. We met Heather from California who walked with us most of the way but she continued on to Pamplona. We stopped 5kms from Pamplona and are staying in an 11th century church, Trinidad de Arre. One of the pilgrims staying here offered to make pasta for us. Who can say no to Tony from Italy!! About 10 of us went to the supermarket to gather ingredients including under €2 wine. You can’t imagine the chaos in the grocery store with all the different languages.
Dinner was superb. Great community at our albergue tonight.Read more
