Up, up, up today. Not many miles today but steep elevation. My health meter shows 109 floors tackled.

Arguably one of the hardest things I’ve done. We climbed 3 peaks today up to 4700 ft then traversed a decline of about 1600 ft, some parts rocky and slippery and very steep. Todays walk took 5Læs mere

Another day another walk. Less uphill 😎🤞. Temperatures ranged between 45 to 49 degrees F with the sun making an occasional appearance. A nice walking day - should have been about 9 miles untilLæs mere

A brisk uphill walk at 7:30 am then some treacherous downhill into Zubiri. We met up with our Camgos at breakfast in Zubiri then walked some more into the small town of Larrasoana. Steve and HeleneLæs mere

Up up up. First 1/2 the day was a brutal 1000 ft climb and 1000 ft downhill. However, I’m told once you climb the alto del perdon you are pardoned your sins. How many pardons do I get?

For today - It’s all downhill from here…
Rejsende Yes - my back was seriously hurting from yesterday. We both needed to lighten our load. I’m thinking we are each between 14 to 15 lbs now. Water included.

OMG, I’m dying laughing from your video. I think Porto might have got us today too. Hard walking hills when you live at sea level & there are no hills 😂
Rejsende 🤣🤣 Those hills in Porto and Lisbon are crazy! Hey we are now on the same time zone! Almost… Hope you are enjoying Porto.
Rejsende We are so far! Enjoyed a delicious bottle of white wine (grapes I was not overly familiar with but I really liked) while sitting at a cafe overlooking Vila Nova de Gaia. (32 hours of being awake at that cafe) !! Then we had to walk uphill back to our Air BnB. 😵💫
Rejsende these clouds remind me of snow...
