Adventures of a newbie trekker
The
6:00am alarm call came too soon, the previous evenings haricot beans were
starting to take affect …the air became a bit thick and pungent in the communal
bedroom (not good)
We were on the road at 7:00am … It was still dark as we headed towards the small 13th century village of Torres del Rio. We saw the sun rise – fabulous.
Main ‘highlight’ of the day was at breakfast – watching Richard drop chocolate down his shirt and John trying to get it out with shampoo… Very messy. This was followed by John dropping Geoff’s drink on the floor – the cracks are starting to show!
Arrived in Logrono , very tired after our 20 mile walk that took us 8.5 hours including a couple of breaks. The cathedral was beautiful.
No partying tonight…very tired and legs aching…another full on day Tomorrow with 30km to cover.
We have a few blisters developing in the team…John lanced his with a needle and drained the puss with thread, Richard applied Compede to his… We will see which method works best…
