NARRATIVE: Everything has changed so much. It's impossible to do this without an active phone. Used to be that you could send an email the night before. Now, everyone I meet say things like, "oh, I reserved my whole trip 6 month in advance." So, now every gite you call is "complet".
When I heard it was supposed to rain today, I tried to contact LA Malle Postale to have them transport my bag. Nope, now you have to reserve in advance. So frustrating.
I was doing ok this a.m. but by 12:00 it started pouring. My back was killing me from the weight of my pack. Fortunately, there was a little snack place and the woman agreed to drive me the remaining 11 kms into town. I gave her 10 euros for her kindness.
The ride to town with another walker.
that was a good ride. the food looks good.
