I would like to thank a small group of young pilgrims who made my 48th birthday on 02 oct very special to me.I had juzt struggled with sore feet and knees up the hill outside Atapurta i reached the top part just as the sun was rising so decided to take a few minutes to enjoy it on my birthday.then a group of four young pilgrims came up.i explained it was my birthday and would they mind taking a photo for me which they did,then they asked my name and sang happy birthday to me.It was wonderful and very surreal moment been sang to at sunrise on a hill in spain on my birthday it really made not just my day but something i will remember for my lifetime..
Sorry i didnt get your names at the time but you know who you are and i bope i see you all again on the camino..thank you young people
An added bonus as they sang my name allan from down the hill came a shout "allan is that allan from yorkshire" .. it was my new friend Joyce from canada a great lady who old enough to be my mum helped and stayed with me a few days before when i was having a rough time,we then walked together into Burgos.
Thank you everyone
