Day 6
Estella –> Sansol (about 16 miles/26 km)
At least it wasn’t raining when I left the albergue this morning. The weather was actually quite agreeable. Yet, today was a rough day. I hiked longer than the recommended stop of Los Arcos. At the end of my walk, I felt exhausted. I could barely speak English let alone Spanish.
Day 5
Puente la Reina –> Estella
While everyone else was scrambling around in the dark trying to get ready to go, I continued sleeping until my alarm went off at 7 AM. I was one of the last people in the albergue, but it was a great choice. The past few days, I’ve felt super tired within the first hour of walking, like I could curl up in a ball and fall asleep on the side of the road. After waking up at 7, I felt more refreshed. Things were even open in town, so I was able to grab a tortilla and a café con leche before hitting the road.
