Day 2

May 15th

Roncesvaux - Larrasoaña - 25km

Kevin and Bent (from Denmark)

We woke up late if you consider the other people around. We left Roncesvaux at 7:30 am and it was pretty the day with many sheep and trees around. Stopped at Burguete/Auritz for some breakfast. It was busy, the Brazilians were there too and our Irish friend too. Going down the hill we met Bent our Danish friend, like Kevin both had their knees sore. I was walking faster so I left them to walk together. When we arrived in Zubiri Bent went to a albergue and stayed there. We had a break in a church square and kept going to Larasoana, the longest 5km of my life : / and probably worse for Kevin that was already about to give up. We got in Larasoana about 4:00 pm and they had some beds left in the municipal : ) The albergue have 50 beds but only 2 showers : ( So it means I stayed in line for more than 30 minutes. The city is very small and later on all the albergues were full and they had only 1 place to eat. It means it was full and crazy, they were almost serving cold pizza and people would accept. We were lucky to be able to get a warm and a hot pizza (pizza was the only thing available). After that no more energy for anything, time to sleep. I hope Kevin feels better tomorrow.
