Quick live update today as I procrastinate at the foot of Mt Perdon at the brilliant"our little secret" coffee shop and bakery just past Cezar Menur.

Stayed at the Plaza Cathedral albergue in Pamplona, beside the cathedral last night. Very nice host and unlike the Jesus y Maria albergue has toilet seats! (Simple pleasures).

Warning to those walking b4 Easter that there were no open services between Zubiri and Pamploma so buy in Zubiri your baguette and fixings for a picnic lunch along the way (like the camino used to be). The bar by the river is under going renovations and the Stone pizza ovens in Iroz were sadly not up and running... heavy sigh.

Pilgrims thinning out a bit but new bunch starting in Pamplona. Azofra with its limited beds will be the next big test to see how busy things are.

Bells are ringing so time to start the climb to the pilgrim statues.

Live updates are great. Helps me remember and almost feel like I'm there again.

When you say no services.... Do you actually mean no services? As in, NO SERVICES...?

I was rather looking forward to the Irotz pizza! But, no other bar or places to grab a snack? Was planning on getting a second stamp somewhere along the way... perhaps a church or police station somewhere.

Leaving SJPdP Wednesday!

I didnt wander through Laragosa, but experience is that there is nothing open in the am. There are washrooms in the park along the river and of course several water fountains just no food or coffee. The semi famous Juan wa at his usual spot with "donation" fruit and pop (just b4 the tunnel at athe Ares hill), but that was it. And yes, no stone oven pizza
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
