...via Orio and Zarautz, perhaps a suitable quiz question ... both beautiful ... the walk too ... plenty of elevation, through woods, views of the sea ... company and profound conversation with Nadia, an orphan who turned her back on assorted carers ... went her own way early ... a sculptor who rejected Catholicism and Christianity. .. found divine love in a small hermitage. .. bathed in love, she said ... still a difficult path, not helped by diabetes and now the tumour ... she is walking many routes and enjoying every day ...
At Orio, Jacobien arrives for coffee and conversation ... Dutch and much travelled ... on to Zarautz and a long beach to treat the feet, before a seaside few kilometres to Getaria, a welcome Menu del Dia before 3 ... and up the hill to the albergue and the welcome hot shower ... and a box for the winter coat and spare trousers to save weight and volume in the rucksack ... lots of ups and downs on the coastal route ... excess baggage not required!
