Finslly in the mountains!

RWow is all I can say. I will try to post pictures but this wifi is so weak it probably won't send them. 

It was a long day today but almost all of it was in the mountains. About 35 km, more than we had planned. But we had stops in two  little towns slong the way. 

When we arrived at our albergue for the night we had a late lunch and then the owner offered to drive is up so we could visit  San Juan de la Peña today rather than have to wait till it opens at ten tomorrow morning. We're about an hour and a half walk below the monastery so having to wait till ten would have been a pain. This was wonderful. We had a nice long visit to this amazing 10-12th century monastery built right into the rocks. Then a walk back down to our albergue (7 km down hill and with no pack is like a walk in the park!). 

Tomorrow we join the camino aragonés. We will have to figure out some logistics but it should be more of the same beautiful Pyrenees scenery.
