To Zubiri
Today was a bit more pleasant. I managed
17 km again and it was more level with some ascent and descent.
1/2 or 2/3 of the way was paths within the forest so much better than the direct sun. And it was beautiful. My body is holding up really well. Just my toes get sore. When we arrived in Zubiri we walked over a bridge entering the town, so once we were checked into our Albergue we went to soak our burning, aching feet in the creek. It was wonderful!! Hot shower at the end of the day feels real good for muscle overuse, but can’t even describe how good the cold water felt on the feet! Our path is marked to show the way. We follow either a clam-shell type picture or a yellow or blue arrow. And sometimes they are not very distinguishable. I have taken a wrong turn a few times and luckily backtracked before I was too far. Included is a picture that shows how subtle signs can be; two of them in the photo. Sometimes they are more obvious than others, so we sure have to keep alert.もっと詳しく
旅行者You talk about the signage being clam type and a blue and yellow arrow, are these different routes that you can choose to take? And is one easier than the other two? Also do they end up at the same location or different locations?
旅行者Nope there is only one path to go. And there may be a clamshell sign, or yellow arrow, or blue arrow. And you better see it unless you want to backtrack. And trust me, I walk enough kilometres in a day and I really hate to backtrack!

旅行者Again, great photos. You say “we”in your notes, are you walking with some people you met?

旅行者Signs can be on the ground or on the building, or a sign post
