Hi to all. We are both well.
We had a rest day in Bilboa which was really nice and much deserved. After expecting an industrial city we were very surprised as it was welcoming and clean. The Guggenheim Museum was great. More so for the building than the modern art inside.
We are now on the coast west of there and our days start at about 6am walking whilst it's cool. Then breakfast along the way. Into town by early afternoon if possible. We are doing better with our walking speed now.
Heading into Cantabria and the hills are less demanding apparently, ahead of us.
There are few albergue open so we are staying in Pensions which are comfortable and welcoming at the end of the day.
We have had some nice fresh food and vino tinto (only a little).
Heading for Santander now love Chris & Vern

Hi Chris & Vern, your progress sounds wonderful, with meeting really interesting people along the way, with the landscape complimenting & compensating any difficulties. It is cold? & wet here (well 17c overnight) but miserable, so hard to imagine the need to leave at 6am! I should be having my last training session this morning, now 6am but thinking I wont go as I've had the dogs disease this week, and we fly out to Vancouver tomorrow 3oth. So good to hear from you - not sure when/where I'll be reading your next report. love & hugs Ruth.
ReplyDeleteHi Chris and Vern.
ReplyDeleteYou seem to be powering along these days. Have you had cause to use the tent yet? Glad all going well. The girls have left for Canada this past week.
Stay safe and happy.
Love
Donie and George
