      Day 7- Logrono to Najera

      12 September 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☁️ 68 °F

      So today we ventured 28km from Logrono to Najera. Logrono is a very large city so took us a bit of time to exit the big city and get back to the countryside.
      So in the La Rioja region the soil is a red clay which apparently is great for growing grapes as they were everywhere today. I would guess 14 miles worth:)
      At this juncture there aren’t as many small towns we travel thru instead larger towns with more distance in between. Today a little less than halfway to Nájera was Navarrete. Has about 3000 residents and is the pottery center of the region. Would make sense based on the clay there! BTW red clay when it is wet is really soupy and sticks pretty heavily to shoes. We were lucky to avoid the rain but many puddles showed the thickness of the soil when wet.
      The views continued to be amazing along the way and we made good time as the terrain was easier today and the weather was perfect. not the hot afternoons that we had had. Looking at the weather app this may continue into next week as well!
      Nájera has about 8000 residents and dates back to as early as 923. It is known for the production of furniture. The town is nestled next to a mountain that has many caves throughout and has a very cool looking side that looks like jagged red rock!
      I think I will name today “ milestone day”
      We crossed over 100 miles walked( we are at 117.5) and we made it 7 days walking without any major injuries , a few blisters and tweaks of things but nothing major! Two good milestones to reach!
      Oops almost forgot to mention, a common picture on the Camino is one that is your shadow. You walk for hours “into” your shadow, got to admit it’s kind of cool!      Baca lagi

      To Nájera

      12 September 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F

      With walking so many miles each day, our muscles and joints tend to get sore or irritated. So, a big part of this journey is visiting the pharmacy (farmacia) for items to ease the discomfort. Earlier in our trip we needed some blister supplies and this time we asked the sweetest pharmacist for ibuprofen cream, hydrocortisone cream (for heat rash), and Fisiocream (natural arnica cream for sore muscles). She joked with us about us needing all the creams 😂

      In the USA, we can go in and get things like this right off the shelf, but in Spain you have to talk to a pharmacist who will then bring you the item(s).

      Today, we left Navarette before daylight, not because we had a huge day of walking, but because of the possibility of thunderstorms in the afternoon (which thankfully didn’t happen).

      We then spent the whole morning walking by rolling fields of grapes and climbing up in elevation before descending to the town of Nájera. SO many grapes!!!🍇 It was a cooler day and it felt nice to arrive in a town and not be so tired and drenched in sweat. My heat rash took a break today - hooray!

      Before checking in to our room, we sat under the umbrellas near the river visiting with Katrina from New Zealand (until she went on a search for a good food place), Hermione from Berlin, and 5 Americans. Then we just relaxed in our room figuring out some places we want to stop later on our walk.

      A little Nájera history: An impressive complex of caves are located on the cliffs of the mountains above Nájera.  These caves were actually man-made even before the Roman colonial period, over three thousand years ago 😳 when Celtic invasions created much instability and insecurity.

      Tomorrow, we walk to Santo Domingo de la Calzada.      Baca lagi

      Logrono to Najera

      18 September 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ⛅ 68 °F

      Well, first a confession: I'm just now emerging from a cranky, hangry phase. That, combined with the fact that Najera is just not as well preserved or charming, has colored my view of this stage. It was long (18 miles). It was vineyards as far as the eye could see, which is lovely but somewhat monotonous (I know, Camino hell!). And we had no pilgrims walking with us because many of our new friends had scheduled rest days in Logrono.

      Our midday break was in a charming town called Navarrete (pop. 2,900), where we did as in Spain and partook of a small Radler to speed us on our way. A 16th century Church of the Assumption there was stunningly ornate. Its wooden floors had me wondering why they dared have real votive candles (in addition to electric ones).

      We walked three hours from there through Rioja country. Finally re-encountered the Belgian couple who has stayed at many of the same hotels as us and got their names: Bruno and Marie Martin. Also snapped a pic of our Italian friend (who speaks no English), Rogelio.

      After arriving very tired and hungry in Najera, we found our accommodations somewhat lacking, the town somewhat ghost-y, and where there was action there was no real food. Hence the hangry spell. Found something to tide us over then picked up pre-packaged cano de lomo (more cured pork) and cheese and fruit for our breakfast and headed back to the *penthouse apartment* that is not anywhere near as nice as it sounds. Two plusses: the hosts provided a free bottle of local wine (variety unknown as they private-labelled it, but plenty decent), and it has a rooftop terrace with a view of the cliffs that are a backdrop of the town.

      Crankiness aside, we remain grateful for the chance to see how differently people live--and maybe by the end of the trip we, too, will enjoy four-hour lunches and dinners that don't start till 8 pm!      Baca lagi

      Logrono to Najera

      22 September 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

      After a very lively noisy night outside our windows we blearily got up and set off again in the dark for another long long day of walking. People of Logrono were still partying from all the wine festival celebrations and the street cleaners were out water blasting the streets.
      It seemed quite a mission to get out of the city but it is a very pretty city , with a big river and is the capital of LA Rioja . It is a big university town, hence the feeling of being in party central!
      We finally found our way out of the city and it was pleasantly cool. We walked through more wineries helping ourselves to the bunches of grapes as hasn't had breakfast. After about 12km we walked into Navarette high on a hill (of course) . The boys had hearty bacon and eggs and us girls had delicious croissants which we felt we thoroughly deserved. We all felt a bit weary today so we just plodded along clicking off the kilometers.
      As you walk you do meet different people and today was Pamela from Indiana wearing a short skirt with huge strong legs! Lots of interesting chat with her, then a young Sth Korean boy who had terrible blisters so gave out advice on that problem. It's amazing how simple life becomes on the Camino, Rather then worrying about the leaders debate or the rugby world cup we are focusing on where the next cafe and toilet will be and what the state of our feet are. I must say I am very proud of my bunion afflicted feet! They do the job and none of our 8 feet have blisters!
      So on and on we walked with a headwind but at least it was cooling. They were harvesting the vineyards by hand and so lots of activity. We lay beside a vinyard and rested for awhile having nuts and lollies for lunch plus more grapes!
      Finally after a long hard slog through some not so pretty scenery we walked into Najerra with a quaint old town section where we are staying and it's so lovely and quiet! As we sat at a bar having a beer on arrival, Jane and I were laughing at our appearances of the delightful socks and sandal look ,but did we really care after walking 29 km ( 44,000 steps) , not at all and boy the beer tasted good! Off out soon to dine by the river and feeling rather hungry.
      I hope the awful weather in the South stops and the Warriors win! The rioja wine awaits!      Baca lagi

      Day 9 Navarrete and 10 Najera

      19 April, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C

      Heading to Naverette was mainly vineyards and pavement. A somewhat easy 24km walk but our feet and legs still hurt from the daily pounding. No blisters anymore, just aching muscles.
      It's FIESTA time in Najera celebrating what else but wine....vineyards are everywhere. 5 refills for 10euro...I'm in😁 Gave ourselves a break today with only 16 km. Next few days will be tough with longer walks and higher ascents. Onwards!Baca lagi

      Najera

      27 April, Sepanyol ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C

      Exploring the heart of Spain.🚶‍♂️🍇 From Navarette to Najera, We've braved both rain and sunshine today. Our feet might disagree, but the spirit is soaring!
      Just checked into our apartment and made our way to the local bar downstairs. I'm amazed by the warmth and friendliness of the Spanish locals here. Language barriers? No problem. Laughter and smiles are universal. 🌍💬🤣

      Camino Art in Rioja

      23 Mei, Sepanyol ⋅ ☁️ 61 °F

      Enjoy the nice 16 km walk from Navarrete to Najera through Rioja vineyards, olives, and peaches today leaving our Alberge at 9:00 a.m. and arriving around 1:00. Stopped at a cafe for a coffee after taking a .9k detour through an outdoor art exhibition in nature. The Pilgrim who goes off the path gets a reward!

      Walked the remainder of the trail with with Henry from Ireland who was on his second Camino, keeping me going at a faster pace, with Cheryl just behind us. We arrived in town in time to stop off at the first bar for a cold cerveza and a rest in the warm afternoon Spanish sun while we waited for Trina to walk into town.

      Found my way to the hotel and have been planning our next stages as we prepare to embark on the mesetta after Burgos next week. I can't believe we've already walked over 220 km!      Baca lagi

      Etsppe 8 - Nájera 3

      22 September 2022, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

      Diese Bilderserie beschäftigt sich ausnahmslos mit dem Inneren des Klosters.
      Die Kirche wurde gegen 1422 im spätgotischem Stil errichtet. Sie besteht aus drei Kirchenschiffen und dem Querschiff.
      In das Benediktinerkloster gelangt man durch das Karlstor.
      Kreuzgang der Ritter, Mausoleum von Don Diego López de Haro, der königlichen Grabkammer sowie die herrlichen Altäre geben der Kirche etwas phantastisches.
      Die Chorstühle sind ein Meisterwerk floraler Spätgotik.
      Aus dem Prospekt:
      Das Kloster von Santa Maria la Real ist einer der prägenden Orte des Landes La Rioja, nicht nur wegen seiner wertvollen Kunstwerke, sondern auch weil es auch ein treues Spiegelbild der geschichtlichen Bedeutung dieser Gegend in der Entstehung des spanischen Königsreches während des Mittelalters ist.

      Etappe 8 - Nájera 4

      22 September 2022, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

      Noch einige kleine Impressionen der Altstadt.
      Zum Tagesende dann Pintxos , ein Bier und Rioja darf nicht fehlen.
      Zwischendurch mal noch ein klein wenig Statistik:
      seit 12.09.
      bis heute rund 355.400 Schritte zurückgelegt!!!
      Fazit des Tages: trotz aller Anstrengungen dürfen Kultur und Genuss nicht zu kurz kommen. Mit Kleinigkeiten soll man sich belohnen. Das wussten schon die Pilger in den Jahrhunderten vor uns.      Baca lagi

      Rain drops keep falling on my head

      30 September 2022, Sepanyol ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

      Walked my first day in the wind and rain. Learnt the Spanish word for cold - frio. It was a drizzle most of the time, just enough that stopping for a rest anywhere was a bit cold and miserable. Thankfully the weather is warming up again from tomorrow and by the middle of the week it's going to be way too hot.

      Day two after a rest day I was a bit hesitant about the 18 km. I was also out of supplies and there weren't necessarily going to be shops or cafes today. I headed out about 9.15 hoping I'd find a decent breakfast and some snacks before I left town. On the first corner I found an open cafe and scored bacon and eggs for breakfast and some supplies for the road. Last night I'd had a lovely pilgrims menu of lentil soup, stewed beef cheeks and egg custard with Robert from the US who I'd meet in the laundromat in Logrono the day before - so I was suitably well fuelled for my day out.

      I also found Andrea from the US and Geraldine from Ireland just finishing breakfast. I'd meet Geraldine in Los Arcos a few days back but Andrea and I had been chatting, passing each other and having lunch together since back before Pamplona. They headed off but my breakfast was quick and I caught up with them just a little way out of town.

      I thought I'd brave walking with them for the day and would hopefully be able to keep up. I thought a little company might help a cold wet day to be a bit cheerier and that also it might stop me from dawdling the second half of the day. It was a good decision. They are both lovely companions and while I had to walk faster, they needed to rest when I did and were a great distraction from the weather.

      We took a slight detour into the only village near our path today and had a lovely early lunch before walking through vineyard after vineyard across the countryside. We were given some lovely wine grapes to eat along the way and made it into town not long after three.

      I'm hostelling tonight but while I booked a dormitory, I've scored a room with just myself and two others. Susanna from Hungary says it's the nicest room she's had since she started so I am being thankful I can have a private room when I want and company if I feel the need.      Baca lagi
