Day 7: Estella

Rainy today. Relief from yesterday's heat (23c). Glad I have my turquoise poncho! Such a fashionista on the Camino...

Madre Mia... there were up and downs today. More ups than downs it seems. I was a wee bit disheartened - the rain, the dampness, the relentless climb. My walking companions are great. It makes all the difference in the world to have someone 'to grin at' as Kay likes to say when the going gets tough.

Luckily my feet are OK. I was a bit worried yesterday because they sweated a lot and I wondered at my choice of wool liners and socks. Gotta remember to stop to air out and rest them.

We're in Estella, in a hotel, about 3k from the magical old part of the city. We'll most likely just eat here and go to bed. Too tired to go back...

So much to tell you, but I'll you leave upu with the image of wild poppies along the roadside. Can't tell how they delight me!

Sending Camino blessings!
