Hello from Biskarentta which is only 12 km from Rtoncesvalles. I sort of got sick and shortened the day's walk. I have a virus or something that is causing me to have a fever and I drenched my clothes very quickly. I am sort of kinda ok now but we shall see in the morning. I had to climb a couple hills that were around 50 to 100 meters in elevation change that forced me to stop several time on each hill. I slept the rest of the day and recover some. Enough whining.
Ramsey you did well preparing me for Spain. I was so proud of myself when I communicated with the owner of the hotel who speaks no English. Then I went to the la tienda de comida (food store) and got by fairly well with la senora that runs it. Ramsey you did good. Surprisingly I think I understand Catalan well. Catalan is the language of Spain and not Spanish they are similar but not the same.
I should apologize for the Paris post which was meant to be funny but turned out mean spirited. I love Europeans having lived in Germany for 2 years. Americans generally don't understand Europeans however I do.
Speaking of speaking the camino is absolutely incredible. It is really tough on me but absolutely incredible. The official language of the xamino is English more or less. There are many languages spoken here and one minute I speak English then German then Spanish then few words of French. It is amazing. I have never experienced anything like this before.
My posts are being typed on a cellphone and do/will contain grammatical errors since I can't spend the time proofreading and correcting the mistakes. The editor really sucks using a cellphone.
Good night Deb I love you and really miss you. xxoo
