Zubiri, Spain to Pamplona, Spain

Written on May 20, 2009....16.85 miles (2 miles wandering for a room in Pamplona).
Last night we found two of the only beds left in Zubiri. The municipal hostel was full. They opened a gym and put foam pads on the floor. We slept great! Today we saw new friends all day...Monica and Sonia from Germany, Gila and Pascal from Paris, Gonzalo and William from Madrid. Everytime we see each other we cheer because of the progress we are all making. Every break today turned into a party.
We´re pretty sure that Bob and Kathy are moving ahead at a pretty good pace. We might see them down the road if they stay somewhere for 2 nights.
We walked through many beautiful villages. Our favorite was Trinidad de Arre...great park, great bathroom and espresso. We walked along the River Arga and over it on bridges in several places. It was getting hot and we were ready to get to Pamplona where the bulls run in July.
Soothing my soul today were the most beautiful butterflies...white wings, black bodies...yellow wings, green bodies, and many others.
We walked through the suburbs of Pamplona. Today we saw Andy from Czech. We had seen him at Refugio Orisson. Andy walks until he´s tired and then hangs his hammock and sleeps until he wakes up.
Finally after some walking we found a beautiful Pension in Pamplona...a very ancient building. There are many rooms in the Pension with a shared bath. We´ll take a shower, wash our clothes and find a place to eat. We´re so glad to find such a cozy place.
