18 May Zubiri - Pamplona 25 km

As soon as I came out the door from the hostel this morning it started raining and it didn't stop until I was in our lodgings in Pamplona. The book says 20 km, but the sign at the start of the route from Zubiri to Pamplona says 22,8 + 2 km more to the place we are staying makes 24,8 km of walking in the rain as did a whole lot of other pilgrims. Even though I have shoes with Goretex, a good rain jacket with Goretex, and a rain cover over my back pack, everything gets wet somehow, so Sander's footbath and a hot shower did a world of good. Just need to remember to buy a newspaper to dry my shoes inside.
Sander arrived here early by buss and emptied the local pharmacy for stuff to mend his sore feet. Hence the footbath. Due to the rain I didn't see a whole lot of the centre of the town, so we have to leave the sightseeing for tomorrow if weather permits.
A couple of beers, a good meal and a botle of wine shared between the two of us and all is well.
