Day 1 - Thursday 8th May

Walking at last! Planned route was only 7 miles to a hostel just short of half way over the Pyrennes. An early start resulted in a midday arrival, which included a picnic! Time for a relaxing afternoon.

It was quite cold on the route and they wore most of their clothes apart from waterproofs. Scenery was fantastic. The walking was uphill all the way but Jo described it as hardwork, but not the worst she has done.

They shared a small dormitory with two German Pilgrims, but got little sleep due to the strong winds that blew all night.

7 miles completed - 493 miles to go
