Hello everyone. Sorry about my last post and the out of place cancer information. Somehow that is in my email base somewhere. Well on to more stories from the Camino. Every day brings new adventures and new people into my life. Yesterday we stayed in Pamplona after a restful night in the German run Refugio. Restful because I finally pulled ou my ear plugs. A very very important item to bring along on this journey. You never know who will be sleeping in the bunk above, below, or next to you. I think I mentioned our group last night of mainly Canadian, Japanese and American. This is truly an international experience with snippets of diverse languages floating through the air to accompany you as you walk. I am embarrassed at times to be so lacking in the language aspect of my life and I intend to remedy that upon my return. We were up early this morning around 5:45 and keg the refugio my 6:20 or so. We arrived in Uterga after Walking 17.5 kilometers over rough rocky terrain through beautiful cut wheat fields and large fields of dried sunflowers that I imagine is harvested for sunflower oil. The sky was undecided today and shifted from sun to cloudy to rain in the distant back to sun and then wind wind and wind. It felt glorious. All along the mountain ridge were windmills many many windmills which stood like sentries to guide us upward. And today we reached the Alto del Perdon altitude 790 meters. This is where the wrought iron representatives of Medevial pilgrims is found. If you have seen the movie TheWay these figures are shown in the movie and the walk up to that point was long and steep but not as steep and intense as our first 2 days in the Pyrenees. I do believe however that we are getting stronger and building our stamina. Today we walked about 8 hours with breaks and photo ops. I will try to send a picture but not sure it will work. We are at a refugio restaurant bar in Uterga In a room with about 16 beds a total of 8 bunk beds. We walked with Andy from Australia today and he, Tuan from DC now from Viet nam, and Don from Louisiana are my bunk mates in the far end of the room near the window. They are bright articulate men and We had snippets of insightful conversation that has given me some food for thought in between attempts to connect to the available wii fi. The temperature has dropped and I am getting chilly which is a new experience for me on this trip. More to come. Connie, Gay and I are now sitting here trying to figure out our day for tomorrow. Planning to go to Eunate Church which is 2.4 kilometers off the way through Puente la Reina onto Maneru or Cirauqui I am amazed daily and am awestruck that so much has happened already an I've only been walking since Friday a total of 5 days. We've been in Europe for 8 days and Spain since Saturday. Love to you all. Camille on the Camino

Hope you get to Cirauqui tomorrow. It is truly a medieval town with a medieval feel. By the way, are the grapes being harvested yet? Always thought it would be nice to walk the camino while the grapes were being picked.

if it's allright.

Would you make a list of every one of your social networking pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
