Cizur Mayor

After two nights of luuuxery (does no one get my Money Python references??) I walked out of Pamplona early-ish at 0800 in 50°, past the Citadel, University and public gardens in a bit of a daze because I had to focus on remembering/relearning how to walk. Felt like a jumble of disjointed parts that weren't entirely cooperating with each other, like my hip joints belong to somebody else. I seem to have developed this wide, rolling gait, the knees aren't sure what's up with that. I didn't take many pictures today because I was busy renegotiating the deal with my body about what we're up to. It took a fair amount of concentration just to propel myself forward.

So this is the physical shakedown and restructuring, getting me fit for purpose. Got it. Curious what the new configuration will feel like. In the meantime, steady as she goes. I am the Tortoise. 🐢

Made it up and over the Alto de Perdón and arrived in Obanos, about 13 miles, at the charming Casa Raichu. Laundry is being done, dinner at 7:00, life is good.Read more
