I DID IT! I FRIGGEN DID IT!
Boy only did I really uphill from Orisson to only 3.5km to Roncesvalles (for the record, pronounced Ron-çes-bay-yez - yeah, I asked a hospitalerio). The last leg, Downhill! Downhill over loose rocks!
None of that matters, cause -I- made it.
See, today's journey was mentally fulfilling - I came to the conclusion that I am on Camino and I am not competing with anyone else for bragging rights. Plain and simple today I had a challenge and I met it head on and surprised myself and apparently many others at my dedication and stamina on this task.
So, -I- made it over the Pyranese and I won't judge my accomplishment on any other persons accomplishments, that is their victory for them to hold proudly just like I am going to hold this accomplishment proudly.
Speaking of which, they is nothing like walking into a building and having friends you made stand-up and cheer because the are happy you made it.
My Camino family grows.
Buen Camino!
Awesome! U da man. Buen camino. Ross
