Didn't get a great night's sleep again, it's hard to sleep in the auberge with so many people around. felt more tired today than any other day on the walk. I managed 22 miles but it was hard. For the first day for ages, my feet are really sore tonight. I walked from Santa Domingo to Villafranca and it was mostly up hill. Villafranca is 1000 feet up and I really feel the change in the temperature, so my rucksack is much lighter because I am practically wearing all my clothes to keep warm - the kilt is perfect walking gear no matter which season! I am enjoying Eric's company, we don't always walk together but we usually meet up in the evenings and walk parts together.
Today is Ethan's birthday, my grandson who is 1 today and almost had the same birthday as his mother, Jen. I phoned him and spoke to him, he went to the zoo with his mum and dad and had a fantastic day. I send lots of love from Granda Mc Garry. I am missing you all and look forward to seeing you soon.
I am on the home leg now with about 300 miles to go. Yeehaw!
Thanks grandpa, I had a great day and its my party tomorrow. I'm really proud of you and can't wait til you get back and tell me stories from your walk. Miss you & see you soon, Ethan.
