Let me first of all say there aren’t any photos today as the WiFi here in Roncevalles keeps dropping out. However, just to bring you up to speed, as the title says, it was a very hard day. I left SJPP at 06.10 this morning (it was still dark) and immediately met up with a fellow traveller, a Danish guy and we walked the whole 15 miles putting the world to right.
You’ll remember from yesterday I mentioned the SBF30, well, this wasn’t required as we had thick mist, cold rain and winds. But then we were crossing the Pyrenees. The going I found quite arduous at times and I’m glad I took my walking poles as we seemed to be walking almost vertically in some places. This, combined with the weather, was not something for the faint hearted.
Now currently staying in an old monastery with a good number of travellers from all over the world. Makes for interesting conversations. Dinner is at 7.00pm and there’s a blessing for us pilgrims in the church at 8.00, everybody welcome whether you’re religious or not.
I’ll try and upload some photos tomorrow when I hope to reach Larrasoana.

Brilliant. Take heart from the tough start.

Todays part of the walk should hopefully be the biggest challenge you’ll face! Rest well and hope the legs are ok for tomorrow.

Keep going, glad there is not too much sunshine, it is always easier walking when it is cloudy.
