Day 4

So it turns out Jesus Could not handle all that cheap red wine. I was made aware of this in the morning when I asked someone what the rubbery pink bits were sticking to my socks. Turns out it was the pasta I had cooked last night and I had slept right through its regurgitation and the subsequent attempted clean up operation. Jesus had slept in bunk underneath me and luckily apart from his own clothing the only other items he had turned purple were my beanie and another girls bra.

Today was a short walk with the highlight being a stop in Pamploma. We got rained on almost the whole day apart from a short break which allowed us to take a few nice photos...


When we arrived in Pamploma wet through morale was low. However after getting into a warm dry bar for a coffee and some pintxos (Basque tapas) spirits were lifted. I also bought two glasses of the Basque liqueur Patxaran only to find out my companion was unable to to drink alcohol. Luckily in true Camino spirit another Pilgrim came along to help us out. The stuff was like a very large serving of pink Sambuca, two glasses would have flattened me.

The hostel we are staying in now is very comfortable.  Our group has our own room and we were able to have use of a washing machine.
