The hostel was nice and had a bar where we had several beers along with egg, cheese, and pork bocadillos.  <\/p>\n<p>We started our walk the next morning with a short, steep hike to the top of Alto del Perdon where the scenery was amazing\u2026a 360 degree view of the valleys below. The majority of the day was one amazing view after another.  We took a side road to the 12th century Eunate church of St. Mary. Well worth the 3 km detour. <\/p>\n<p>We reached the city of Puente la Reina in the early afternoon where a celebration was going on. I am not sure what the celebration was about but there were several folks dressed up in very tall costumes dressed as kings, queens, jesters, etc.  we bought two pizzas in one of the small shops and at them on the street while watching the celebration.<\/p>\n<p>We then departed for the town of Cirauqui where we will spend tonight. The walk to Cirauqui was a killer as it is a town that sits high on a hill.  The alberque where we are staying is at the top of the town. Again, the heat today did not makes things easy. Cirauqui is a town of streets that are like mazes and everything things to go uphill. A very cool town but if you don\u2019t like walking uphill, don\u2019t come here. We already had our beers and some wine at a local bar.  We are now waiting for dinner to be served at 7pm. <\/p>\n<p>We are starting to hit our stride and reserving rooms one day in advance. Tomorrow we are off to the town of Azqueta\u2026we think it might be an easier day. But we thought today was going to be easy, but it didn\u2019t turn out that way. Still, a great day\u2026here are the pics:<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We stayed overnight at the Alberque Andres in Zariquiegui in our own private three bed room.
