Roncesvalles to Zubiri

What a difference a day makes. The 13.9 miles to Zubiri took us through farms, forests, medieval Basque villages and was gloriously flat. It made us realize what grinder yesterday was. A warm and pleasant walk in the woods. We've dropped back below 2,000 feet and the weather report is good.

Early in the day we walked through Burguete. You Hemingway fans (like me) will recognize this town as the location of Jake and Bill's fishing trip in The Sun Also Rises.

Thank you to the many who subscribed to this blog yesterday, it gives us energy to continue. On that note, if anyone has a question for us about this crazy adventure feel free to ask in the comments (or Contact Us). In fact, if you have any problem that needs solving throw it in there too and we'll spend some miles working on it. If we don't respond immediately either the WiFi is poor, or we just needed several more miles to walk and talk it out.

Buen Camino!

Almost there!

Burguete. There's a piano signed by Hemingway here but we came through too early to see it.
