Just a great day. Amazing views and beautiful scenery. 

We left Irún somewhat early and went partway through town then headed up and into the woods. Then we continued up and up. We had a choice at one point to continue climbing of take the easier trail. 

We took the trail named purgatory, it’s really named that, it was tough but truly incredible. We had to go up and thru pasture lands along a ridge line passing through gates as we entered and left each area. One pasture had horses and newborn colts. There were several grazing there and it was just amazing. 

No places to eat at along the way today, so when we finally arrived in Pasajes de San Juan I was a little hungry after walking 10 miles on just a couple of granola bars. There were no store in this little town that we could find and it took us 3 tries before we could find a restaurant that would serve us food at 5pm. Here in Spain dinner is much later. 

It is now 8pm and I’m ready for bed. So until next time.. be well. 

I heard that the grass is greener on the other side, tastes better too!
