Lights on at 6am. People left quickly. I mosied (sp?) out, said goodbye to my London angels and headed out of Roncesvalles.
Almost all of the walk was through the woods, thick and thin. It was beautiful! Yeah it rained or drizzled... I never saw the sun. My Italian buddies, I had met at Orisson, encouraged me through a tough area, especailly those uphills. Many people passed me, but I trucked on, got a blister, right foot, second toe. I bandaged it. My right big-toe nail hurts. Probably from the stony downhill parts where the toes push towards the front of the shoe. During the last 4 kms my feet hurt so much! I hope I don´t lose my nail. I have already seen some black ones on other people...yuk! Got to Zubiri, checked in the municipal albergue, got my bunk and again took everything out, put it out to dry. The air is so moist, I have no idea if anything will be dry tomorrow. I put on my longjohn pants and 2 blouses and went to dinner with Jean Paul (France), Martin (Quebec), Henri (Montreal), Celina( Germany) and Veronika (Austria).
I had garlic soup and pork in sauce, fruit salad (called Macedonia) and lots of wine. Bread of course. Back at the albergue I tried to use the internet, blogged, but it turned off before I got it posted!. UGH!! There went another €. Now to sleep.
