After leaving Deba I stopped to look back at the sea. Then continue marching on to Markina-Xemein. It was a long, hot day with two wrong turns. 😥 It was one heck of a stage. Beautiful but tough and on next to nothing sleep from the night in Deba.

Henrik!!! I’m so excited for you! 😁 You’re very courageous and well on your way. Good to know you’ve booked in SJPdP. May I suggest you go to the Pilgrims Office there. They will issue you a pilgrim credential. I think it costs 3 Euro. Last time I was there in 2016 they also handed out a piece...

Sorry to say, some people don't seem to listen but I've learned over the years. People gift what they themselves like not the other way around. I too love raspberry and my heart skips a beat for all things lemon. Best of luck to you. :D
EDITED: P.S. Here’s a few raspberries for ya!
😝😝😝
The Option is very steep in the beginning. If you have any sort of knee, back, foot issues, I would skip it. I was literally using my hands (nearly walking on all fours) during the steepest part. It doesn't last long but it's a dozy. If I can do it, just about anyone can. Then there's the decent...
