Spent the night here at the Albergue Casa Baztan. Kind of a crowded situation. Felt sorry for the girl above me as she had top bunk and many bunks don’t even have a ladder! She must have been in great shape and part gymnast to get up there. The snoring wasn’t too bad, but the bag wrestling in other noises did not help to get a good night sleep. Dinner was yummy thin chicken and lots of sides. Tomorrow I should have my own room and will catch up on my sleep. Met a couple of nice guys from Korea, a nice lady from Germany, Holland, and Peppi from Scotland who likes to play his little guitar. And he has the most lovely accent.Læs mere

No ladder, I guess one of those where you have to use the metal framework -- hard on tender feet! I guess you have come and gone from the place where you had your private room--how welcome that always is! Buen Camino! [Susan Alcorn]

RejsendeYes I had private room in Pamplona and in Lorca. Both helped to catch up on the sleep for sure!

Walked slowly with Yoko, grandmother from Japan, for the last few miles. Said goodbye to her in town. Hopefully she finds a spot in the Albergue gate. She is not reserved anywhere. Tougher walk than expected today. 35,000 steps. 26km. My spreadsheet said 20 km, I did do the longer variant in order to see Eunate church, but I didn’t think it was supposed to add 6 km. Way more uphill than I was hoping for as well. I use the “WisePilgrim” app and it shows profile of the trail but I didn’t soak it in apparently.

This place “Casa Nahia” is awesome. Stocked with food beer and wine and I am going to sleep good tonight. More uphill tomorrow.Læs mere

Brrrr. Cold walk today. And some serious mud. I’ve been through the mud before, but today was worse because there was no way around the mud. And it was very slippery. Somehow, I managed not to fall on my butt.

I think it was in the high 30s for much of the morning. I stopped for a nice second breakfast snack at Los Arcos.

Made it to SANSOL around 130. Found a really nice café in this tiny town and they served a big giant burger with really yummy fries too my first Spain burger.Læs mere

I made it! Very tasty burger here at cafe/bar. Warm in the sun. Cafe video for atmosphere.

Staying in Albergue Karma. It’s kind of funky, maybe a little dusty smelling, but it has character. I even kind of scored a private room since I got here before others. It’s not really private, but there’s no one sleeping on a bunk above me. See video.Læs mere

We walked for almost 4 hours / 10mi before getting a real breakfast. Good thing I had some nuts and salami things in my bag. Let this be a lesson to me. Always be prepared for some morning food in case there is nothing along the way.

Stopped in Najara for a coffee con leche, breakfast sandwich, and a little fillet of fish of some sort. I was hungry! Six more kilometers to our stopping point of Azofra.Læs mere

Azofra!
22. april, Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
Got a room in the tiny town of Azofra. Splitting it with my Camino buddy Don it’s a pension right next to the church. So far, I haven’t heard too many bells. But that could be interesting throughout the night. There is a stork on the top of the church with a big giant nest. So that’s pretty cool. It’s my first stork and nest that I’ve seen so far in Europe.

We walked 14 miles today, the first several miles were right along a freeway. The scenery was nice on the left but freeway on the right. The clouds were threatening to rain, but we only felt a few sprinkles.

The town of Najera we only walk-through, but it had some cool cliffs that look like Arizona Grand Canyon walls.Læs mere

Started by walking 9km to the golfing town of Cirueña where they apparently built too many houses and people did not move there, so there are many empty condos. Also, apparently a quite rude albergue owner who was mean to one of our Australian friends. But the golf course looked kind of nice. Lots of fields, nice trail without too many puddles.Læs mere

It’s warming up here! Only about 70 but it made for a warm walk uphill in the sun wearing backpack and hat and too many clothing layers. Several pictures from Belorado here which I thought was an extra cute town. Lots of murals and art. 5 storks nests on the church bell tower! Grand Canyon style rock formations.

We made it to La Taberna de Espinosa Albergue in Espinosa del Camino. It is full, but we have beds. The meal was fantastic! 4 courses. Our Australian friend even helped do some of the preparation.Læs mere
