Officially started our Camino today, leaving San Sebastián for Orio followed by Zarautz and finally Gertaria.

Such a varied walk with beaches, vineyards, orchards, forest, cobbled paths and lots of hills and valleys. We saw horses, donkeys, bulls, cows, dogs and 2 kittens along the way. Much cuter than the oversized slugs we kept running into yesterday. It was much harder and hotter than we thought, almost 7 hours of walking.

We made it to our first albergue which is an experience in itself. At least we are in the same room this time but with 28 other people. With only one room we were relieved to get a bed otherwise we would need to walk another 5kms to the next town.

A welcome flatter walk tomorrow!Read more
