Relatively flat so not bad at all. Walked with my groupies. We mostly reconnected today serendipitously. Funny that you can go a day or two and not see anybody then everyone appears. Great to catch up.

Head is good, legs are good, feet are starting to feel the effects of all day walking. We are well past 1/4 now. no serious blisters but enough that I need to treat them. 2 bleeders and 1 that’s mostly a scuff. Not to bad.

Today I wore my full brim Tilley hat for the first time. Sun all day.

I am struggling with getting a place to stay every night. Not easy with all the pilgrims post COVID. Tonight I thought I got a good place but it’s a truck stop out of town that required a taxi to get to. who new. Somewhat frustrating. But it’s fine.

Otherwise all good.

Group photo is my groupie gang. Great people

Then a shot of rioja grape country

Then some random church and a ruin of an old pilgrim hospital.

I am in Najera. Ish. Had to go a bit outside.
