Day 10 (5/21) Logroño to Nájera

I’ve been really encouraging students to not be heroes and to portage bags & take cabs when needed, and I finally swallowed my pride and followed my own advice and took a cab from Navarette (half-way point 9 miles in) on today’s walk. That said, today was one of my favorite camino days. Had an impromptu picnic with students along the trail, had a great coffee break in Navarette, and spent two hours lounging by the river in Nájera while waiting for the albergue to open. Jeff, Aaron, and I found a cool little bar in town for lunch and cider, and I thought that it had a vending machine of Vienna sausages, but they ended up being poorly illustrated sunflower seeds. Still tasty.

Fun dinner at Bar Naxara where students were introduced to Birdmanning. God help us all.
