Day 3 ~ Zubiri to Pamplona

Posted on September 12, 2020September 14, 2020 by alhitstheroad

I wasn’t as sore as I anticipated when I got out of bed. The only parts of my body that were talking to me were my hip flexors, or the very top of my thighs. The first step up some stairs told me that it might be a very long day. We had another 13…

But, once you get down the road there are cafes to stop at that have more stuff. Nothing super fancy. Usually more bread products. The church bell was pealing for the…

Spain

Posted on September 9, 2020 by alhitstheroad

I’m skipping some days, just because there are only a few things we did that do not need to be documented. Or, I already posted them on my instagram site. @bigalwood or @alhitstheroad. We made it to Spain. Super easy flight on Ryanair which was only about an hour. We received all sorts of “you…

Dover Castle and Cliffs

Posted on September 5, 2020September 5, 2020 by alhitstheroad

Several things have stood out on our drive around the southern part of the UK that are different from driving around the US. Other than driving on the wrong side of the road, that is. And yes. I’m driving. It’s getting easier. The roundabouts were difficult, but we’ve gone thru at least 50 in the…

Treasures of Palau

Posted on January 4, 2018December 9, 2018 by alhitstheroad

I know, I said that Iceland was next.  Belive me, so did I.  But, I’m still wading thru the TONS of pictures and photographs I took.  It’s so difficult to narrow it down because there are so many amazing photos of Iceland.  I just want to limit it to the best.  Because,  in today’s world,…
