Tonight we attended a pilgrim mass in the ancient church here. Although I am not Catholic and don't understand Spanish, it was very moving, following the same rituals used to bless pilgrims for over 1000 years.

The Pyrenees
Day #2 of the Pyrenees climb. It was a gorgeous morning with more spectacular scenery. By noon we had crossed the French/Spain border and shortly afterwards started the long downhill to Roncevalles, where we are staying in an old monastery. This will potentially be the hardest day of the whole Camino.
Looking down into Spain from Roncevalles Pass.
