Day 1-Orisson/Auberge Borda

No one slept much last night. We were all too excited. We had mild weather today which was perfect for hiking. We only walked 7 miles but it was straight up the Pyrenees. We went from 500 feet elevation to 2900 feet. Pat did today's walk in his Chaco sandals. We saw a couple different types of sheep, cows and vultures. The views are spectacular! The Aussies are with us as well as another Californian, NYer, South Koreans, a German, a Swede and a Brit. Our lives are pretty simple now....walk, laundry, eat and sleep...and converting kilometers to miles, pounds to kilograms, and Fahrenheit to Celsius. We really should just switch to the metric system.Weiterlesen
