zubiri to Pamplona, 35,000 stepometer

the pension that's open in zubiri is immaculate and has a bath and bidet but alas I had to say goodbye early as I knew todays 22k walk to Pamplona was going to be a challenge mainly because if the distance and level of terain I had done over the past few days and the fact my muscles were not happy with me.
I left the comfort of the pension and ignored the bright lights of the village shop almost screaming at me to indulge and headed out I was about 5k along the walk before realising I only had a bag of raisins mixed with sunflower seeds which had to suffice for the next 10k I didn't find another chance ti find a shop for food till the outskirts of Pamplona,by which time I was shaking and slightly glaucomic.
I very much learnt that it's wise to stock up when the opportunity arises or go hungry!
the weather was good today.
Pamplona is beautiful city very safe at night and the people are very friendly.

  1. (Third attempt) Great blog! Keep it up and I'll look forward to it every day. Wife and I will be in your footsteps in March, still in low traffic season, and are especially interested in weather and names of places you stay. For instance: the one in Zubiri does not sound like the municipal - which we did not like last time! Remember its name??
