First day, we met Chris and Joe
Two Irish guys, don't you know
Shared pints and great fun
And this thing's just begun
The first leg to Orrison, which I mistakenly assumed would be a" walk in the park" was anything but. An uphill climb for approx. 10k with inclines of close to 40° and while the going was tough the scenery was spectacular. There was a spot to rest at around 7 km where a dog taught me to throw a sick so he could retrieve it and then again. I miss Ellie.
Reaching Orrison we had a great meal, plenty of wine and great company. The Pyrenees are spectacular. And the setting sun enhances their splendor. I'm so glad I'm on this adventure. Thanks Frances.
Early to bed and early to rise has new meaning. I hope to be on the road by 8.
Tomorrow's walk promises to be even more challenging than today's with a climb of 800m over 13km. I hope it goes Ok.
Got a bit of a "hot spot" heel today... Seems OK right now.
