Camino Day 2<\/p><\/div>\n

Last night I went to Catholic mass in Roncesvalles. This was probably the first time in two decades I went to a regular mass service. But considering what we are doing, I thought it was appropriate. Before mass, I had the best 16 euro meal I ever had (see pics in previous post). Tortellini with mushrooms, Basque chicken, cheesecake and a bottle of wine. Easily a $75 meal at a US restaurant, but just \u20ac15 each for us. May be worth walking 500 miles if this is the norm.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s walk from Roncesvalles to Larrasoana was about 16 miles and mostly flat, which was a welcome change from yesterday\u2019s 4300 feet of hill climbing. We met our Detroit friends, Stephanie and Kyle, for likely the last time as they only planned to walk 7 miles today. I got a pic of all of us, minus me, before we left them. A fairly uneventful day, except for more walking than we originally planned. Most of the walk was through forest paths which was very nice. Lots of animals along the way\u2026horses and cows.<\/p>\n

Resting at our albergue, Albergue San Nicolas, waiting for dinner. This is the first time we will be bunking with people we don\u2019t know. When I say bunking, there are actually bunk beds in our room. Enough for 6 people.<\/p>\n

It looks like 16 more miles are planned for tomorrow. We are getting off to a fast start on our Camino\u2026maybe too fast.<\/p>\n
