Pamplona to Puente La Reina

25.5 km and 5:57 (see map).

A dull start to the day. Cloudy and with a cold wind.

First stop out of Pamplona was a panaderia in a side street off the camino. The centre of early Sunday morning life in the small village. The kids took great pleasure selecting their pastries.

Rolling meadows from then on, with a gradual climb up to a ridgeline. Showers became a little more insistent from here on so it was on with the rain coat. Countryside still beautiful though, despite the weather.

A vending machine totally dedicated to the needs of the peregrino – blister pads, nail clippers, tape, wound dressings, etc. Not a pack of potato chips in sight, but there were condoms (€7) – did wonder whether they would be useful on toes to prevent chafing.
