That little white van with the drinks and snacks made me laugh and brought back memories. It's the last place for a French stamp for your credencial. Several of us managed to arrive just in time. Even though there were tired and thirsty pilgrims behind us, the gentleman closed up shop and we watched him drive away down the hill to his house which was only a couple of thousand yards away or so. We all just started laughing. Thanks for posting.
Enjoyed your blog post on Zubiri. Those bells at the church were nice, but I heard them all night long every 15 minutes as they tracked time. If you get a chance and you have time, I would encourage you to explore Pamplona.Yes that little van was doing a great trade when I stopped. Talk about a captive audience.
I thought bed shortages were going to be an issue today with the sheer numbers of pilgrims heading here, but the municipal was still accepting pilgrims past 5pm.
I have booked a bed in Pamplona tomorrow, so going to take it real slow tomorrow!
So here from Zubiri is my newest post..

What's the name of the swanky albergue and how much was it? What temp. rate/type of bag did you trade out for? What has been the coldest temp. so far? thanks...asking because I am starting out Tuesday.Yes my toes are on their last legs. On with the micropore tape tomorrow!
Here is day three...I am getting quick at this smartphone blogging, that's 15 mins work.
Really enjoyed today. All the other pilgrims seem to be taking it easy after a couple of days of rushing. Guess we are all spreading out a little.

Sounds good! Maybe I don't need my bivy sac??? What time did you arrive at the albergue today...Without a reservation, right?
Hopefully it will be fine. You are doing so well. It took me seven days to get to Estella. That stretch up to Lorca in the heat about did me in.I think it's a hot spot but it can't be far from being a blister. Whatever it is, the soreness developed very quickly. Have put a compeed on, and guess I'll have to see how it goes.

Our work in Bali provides tuition support and school supplies to students in the Munduk region away from the major tourist areas. We raise money to sponsor over 50 K-12 students and support 6 village kindergartens with classroom supplies and teacher training. After six years in operation, our first sponsored student graduated from high school this year. You can learn more at www.hmsproject.org.What work were you doing in Bali? I will check out your site for sure.
Am enjoying reading your posts. I can't say that I really enjoyed the walk going into Burgos and especially the walking through the commcial and industrial areas. Somehow I missed the opportunity to walk the route along the river. Once I got to the historic area of the city, the architecture and art were incredible, especially the catherdral. Buen Camino!
I'm glad that you are getting some opportunities to camp. Enjoyed your post regarding Fromista and conquering the past Camino experience with it. It does indeed sound like you are in a great place and spirit. Buen Camino! and journey on.Camped last night just outside fromista at a new albergue called La Finca. Only €3.
After I put up tent I walked inside and was blown away. Almost seperate rooms like bunks! Brand new everything. Only €10. Had I seen before putting up tent, I'd have stayed inside. 6 of us camping, more pilgrims than you think camping...
