Day #7: Estella to Sansol, 18 miles
"The sum of the whole is this: Walk and be happy, walk and be healthy. The best way to lengthen our days is to walk steadily."-Charles Dickens

I am not a morning person, but I decided that it was worth it to beat the Spanish heat and sun. Up at 6 and on the road before daylight. The reward was gorgeous Spanish early morning light. We walked all day with some new German friends and had dinner with them in the charming old city of Estella.

Long, hot day, but we are staying in an amazing place with a foot soak tub.
Foot soak after a long hard day.
Wonderful pictures...I look forward to each new post of your adventure!
ReplyDeletePaul: lots of pics of churches/cathedrals to show you. A & S: Grace's illness reminded me of someone else stumbling off a plane in Eugene a long time ago. Remember? Carol: All the cafe com leche I can drink!
ReplyDeleteChris, I really admire you and Gracie for undertaking this journey that thousands and thousands of faithful have undertaken over the centuries...you are my HERO and I am living this vicariously through you. Have to give you news! Our mutual friend Gerry J. bought the old, huge Phillips house just north of the Me hard house on north Pitt, right before the historic stone hose built in 1840 by the man who owned the Western Press. He said he will be totally moved in by the end of October. Isn't that great and also an unexpected surprise? I admire him doing this at 92! He's going to take me to see it this week. Miss you bunches and keep those STUNNING photos and blogs coming. xoxoxo
