Today was 7 miles, bringing our total to 446 miles, overall. We’re getting there!
Last night was spent at Gite Nadette, 
a comfortable accommodation, a bit off the beaten tracks. The pluses are:
- A nice meal and a bed.
- A terrific view!
- A very nice pool.
- A caring hostess.
The challenges are:
- A bit off the beaten path (about 1.25 miles).
- Some peculiarities, which when understood, simply become an enjoyable part of the experience!
All in all, we had a great meal, a great sleep and a great time!
We’re continue to close in on the Pyrenees, visible above the morning fog at Gite Nadette.
As we walked along, we could see that the rolling hills and farmlands are starting to give way to foothills and forest. 
We are now in Navarrenx, a completely fortified village dating back to Roman times.
A bird, a pain, no it’s Super- Diane!
It seems that “Pinson” is the French name for a type of bird, similar to a Finch.
We’ve been told this by several French persons, but this time they showed us the info.
Pain: Diane’s shins continue the slow but definite trend towards improvement. This is a very good thing. We both wish the healing would go faster, but hey, at least she is able to continue walking. That is s big blessing!
Tomorrow is our third and last day off. Life is good! We’re have about 45 miles left to go to get to St. Jean, in three walking days, so a day off is a good thing.
Bill and Diane
Pinson, the bird! I love it. 🐦 Very glad that Diane’s shin continues to improve. If you could only see what the words actually are in this comment section before I change them. Voice recognition is not perfect! Think 🤔 shin, but then change the “n” to a “t” and then read the second sentence again. Oh, dear. So glad I proofread! I’m back to a full day at the office. Grateful for the business. Iris was very glad that I came home for a number reasons, not the least of was the fact that she shared her little bed with all three dogs! Not much sleep happening for her while I was away. 🛏 🐶🐶🐶. I talked to a woman on the plane coming home yesterday who was looking forward to being out here in the sunshine and heat as she was from back East and all they had was rain. The weather forecast for today is rain all day! I’m happy, not so sure about that woman. But she’ll get her heat the rest of the week. Anyways, time to go. Love you both 😘😘
Hi Willow! Thank you for the kind help with the editing! I was actually using the SWIPE writing technique which is not quite as fast as voice to text, but more effective when there is limited internet. That technique, coupled with Android’s latest correction algorithm can be wonderful … or a royal pain. Let me explain: If SWIPE puts a wrong word down, Android will “fix” it … and the next several words forward AND backwards, until it thinks it forms a viable sentence. The results can be good , but often are not so good! Today, after wrestling with the blog for almost two hours, I didn’t proof as I guess I should have. Thank you so much for your help!
Welcome home and enjoy the cooling rain.
