Blister day - Pamplona to Puente la reina
... once we get past this first week! But apparently it is not uncommon to have "word finding difficulties" at this stage!
We are trying to upload pictures so hopefully this will give you an idea of what type of stunning scenery we´re walking through.
Hope everyone is well back at home, you are all in our thoughts.

The 16 hours were a layover, waiting in the train station, and a wonderful dinner in Pau. It feels good ...
Amazing Day in the Mountains!
... my chest while I was talking with another member of my group. I scratched the donkey's head and ears as if it were the family dog! What an experience.
After photos and meeting the donkey up close, I rode back to the Col du Soulor where we had lunch out on the deck of a restaurant. The weather was perfect and the 360-degree view was spectacular (see photos).
After lunch we had the long descent ...
