These boots were made for walking...

I knew the Camino scenery was going to be beautiful, yet I am frequently overwhelmed by its loveliness. Today's path consisted of a very steep uphill for about a kilometer or two, then several kilometers of fairly flat terrain through the woods with periodic sweeping views of the huge green valleys on both sides, and then a very long, rocky, somewhat treacherous descent to the town of Zubiri where we are spending the night. Often on the descent the path was scissored with striated rocks that hurt to walk on. Many of the pilgrims are hobbling around the Albergue tonight. I have a small blistere on my right ankle but otherwise feel good. My left foot with the plantar fascitis is getting better not worse.  Thanks for all of your prayers!
