Up and down another mountain. The Camino is busily training me. I had been dreading the rocky descent past the peak (Alto del Perdon) because it kicked my rear last time. However, this time, I didn’t find it so exhausting. At the bottom, I passed the bench where I’d stopped and stretched out last time ( wondering how I’d get up and continue the last 11 km). I wasn’t even tempted to sit for a bit.

Gusta la Opera
The Café Iruña, Pamplona is a historic venue. Mary had dinner there Wednesday evening with her new Camino friend, Ann.
It was that crowded when I was there in 2019 – not so in Covid times, but still busy. They have many outside tables, so people are not squished together, and they are not seating indoors.
