Navarrenx to Lichos - 14 kilometers

Short day, started out at 9:00 and arrived at 2:30

After the basic breakfast - bread, yogurt, tea, coffee, cereal, ham, cheese but no croissants, we walked around Navarrenx.  The city is build inside the old ramparts.  

On top the ramparts


Nice views today, not in the corn fields




Staying in a private home, only 4 of us staying here, we are sharing bathroom with a French couple.  He is walking but his wife is not - she came by car.  Like us he walked the Camino Frances first and now, like us, he is doing the hike from Le Puy to Saint Jean Pied de Port

Also like us - he liked the walk in Spain better.  Here we are hiking the GR65.  In Spain, you walk the camino, it has a different vibe.  Both good, but Spain is much better.

Lodging entry, upon our arrival, our host made Mare a pot of tea and I had a beer.

Our lodging

Dinner - a wonderful dinner, the couple that own the house were also wonderful 

Our dinner companions

Sangria to start off the meal

Foie Gras

Tomatoes from  the garden with parsley, onion, mozzarella 

Green beans from the garden

Potatoes with garlic

Pork

Cheese

Fresh fruit for dessert

We had rosé wine with the meal and then the woman brought out a bottle of red to go with the cheese - to bring out the taste of the cheese.

One of our best meals on the trip.
