LIVE from the Camino Pamplona to Puenta La Reina -- April Fools Day : )

[Grogan]

After a wonderful stay at a nice Hotel -- it was time to get moving again -- getting out of Pamplona was not too hard -- just follow the markers -- also, added benefit -- the locals -- had a car honk and a dude on a bike stop to let me know I was fixing to go off track -- that could have hurt --- the big Mountain to the Pilgrim Metal Cut Outs and the Windmills -- not a bad hump, just one foot in front of the other -- really nice up there, windy, but nice. I have actually only been wearing a T-shirt with a long sleve fishing shirt over it and have not had any issues staying comfortable -- did pull out the gloves -- a little hand protection from the trekking poles -- staying at the P.P. Albergue in Puenta La Reina -- 5 euros -- good cooking facilities, hot showers, bunk beds -- simple and after pampering myself last night, figured I would get back to the basics for awhile -- Since departing on the 29th -- the Weather has been PERFECT --- the Pilgrims on the Camino simply wonderful.

Most useful piece of equipment to date - Trekking Poles

You go corn husker. I like hotels now and then myself. I like to marinade in the tub. Post when you can. Doc
