After a good night's sleep departed the albergue at 08:30
under a grey sky and mild temperatures. 2km outside Najera this
changed to cold rain. It was a bleak day. In Azofra put on the
poncho for the rest of the day. Imagine waling with a 13kg backpack,
poncho, clinging mud for 10km, a headwind with driving rain in your face
and fingers, cheeks and nose frozen, well that was my day for most of
27km. To finish it off we had a hail storm outside Granon where we are
tonight. The albergue is in part of the ancient church and for the 8
pilgrims there was a special mass and evening meal provided. We are
now all sitting around an open fire. It has been a tough day with a
beautiful ending. The feet are tired and sore and there is still hard
walking to do.
