Day 7 Logroño to Najera NO, make that Azofra

Hola mi amigos.
Long day´s walk today. Left Logoño at 0600, after a change of hotel room due to a leak. Day off yesterday was really good for the system, and I saw most of the Spanish GP.
Aimed to get to Najera today (about 29kms), but found it fairly busy when got there. So had a pig out on Watermelon and Pear and pushed on a further 6 kms to Azofra in light rain, working on the theory that most would not. Still busy here but got in the overflow Albergue OK.
Looks like rain tomorrow and Wednesday then fining up. Being a cool day today, we covered the distances quickly and blisters are recovering really well. Feeling much stronger.
Terrain today was quite varied, wheat and barley mixed with vines, and at places looked like a moonscape, or even a bit like the Planet of the Apes??. Later, small hills with dense stands of trees on top. Tomorow might only do 14 kms to Santo Domingo, or maybe a little past depending on weather.
Short post today due to line up for the net. Cheers to all.

Ashley,

Good to hear things are going well. Sounds like you are having fun. Happy about the Roos win not happy about the crows win, they ruined my weekly footy tips.

Regards Steve

Hi Dad,
Saw Di at work today. She wanted me to tell you that their computer died, so no posts from them at the moment. She's very jealous and thinks you should be back here fixing her computer instead of traipsing around Spain ;-)
Good to see the feet are healing- enjoy the rain, moist wound healing is the key!
We had a nice mothers day and used you being away as a good time to gorge on seafood.
Keep up the good work!
Love you,
Corinne

Hi dude, sounds like you're goin great guns. Keep up the good work.
Did anyone tell you the crows won last week. Basketbll is up and running, our guys are the youngest imports and the change in game rules will take some time to learn, otherwise they played well last week.
Anyway stop reading this and get some sleep, you'll be needing it.
all the best from the Callahan's
