Came down via Marie de Campan and picked up a lunch sandwich and eat that at the side of the rOad - Not really into a routine yet -- But it seems to be Find camp spot by 7pm Dinner around 8pm Read till around midnight Up at 5ish Up again at 9ish On the road by 11am. Arrived at Lourdes for Sunday tomorrow -- Found a campsite and checked in for 2 nights -- about 17 Euro's = $25 -- walking distance to Supermarket -- and Grotto -- |
