June 2nd

Liz woke up this morning saying “it’s amazing how a good night sleep (and prayers) make you feel better.” We were both able to walk today and made it 12.8 miles into Rabannal. We stayed in an Albergue run by the confraternity of St James. They greeted us with cold water and at 5 had afternoon tea and cake. We were able to sit around for about an hour meeting all the other “peregrinoes”. Then at 7 they had vespers sung in Gregorian chant. It was beautiful! It’s amazing how God puts people in our lives as we need them. I have developed shin splints and was really hurting. Another girl staying here had some kinetics tape and let me use some to tape my shins. I already feel so much better. God is good!! We are taking the next 3 days and splitting it into 4 days so we will be averaging 12 miles a day. Much easier on our bodies!! Please continue to pray for us as we pray for you.

Unable to send pictures as signal to weak. Will try tomorrow.
