now the final 24km to Estella and I had a leisurely start but soon picked up my pace…

fields continue to roll

The path follows a main road for quite a bit.

we start to come into the  vineyard region

the colours of the wild flowers continue to change…

someone planted the shape of the continents on a hillside

ancient roman bridge and road…

finally i come upon Estella, worn out and ready for a hot shower….then I find the hotel is a few more KM on the other side of town….

once ive recouped I head out for a wander and had a little time in the spectacular Church of San Pedro de la Rúa, that i couldnt bring myself to take pictures of inside.  Time to savour the journey and reflect.

 

and meet up with my group and fellow travellers for a meal on the square at the Florida restaurant.
