A fabulous cool day. We slept again in a hotel in Najera, getting some snacks from the local Supermercado (supermarket), and eating in our hotel room. This avoided the problem of having to wait until 8:30pm + to get dinner, and if we are lucky getting to bed after 10pm. Last night we went to sleep at the unheard of time of 7:30pm, and we got a great nights sleep (which we needed).
It rained in the morning, but by the time we left at 9:00am it had stopped and we had a great day of cool walking. The temperature never got above 20C. We seemed to meet a lot of pilgrims on the trail today, and when we got to Santo Dominigo at a bit before 4pm, the first Albergue was already full. We are staying at the Hostel run by the Nuns at the back of the albergue. We did 23km today.
some white wine we bought for dinner at 69 euro cents - about a $1 Australian!

Your getting really well organized. Helen is following you.
