21st May Deba to Markina Xemein 23kms

Guess what 3hrs of drizzling rain, my legs are on fire, and the mud! Now it takes 3hrs to traverse 9kms, I end up on my knees in the mud as we slip slid to Markina. Albergue is in Carmelite convent, which does not open until 1500 hrs, the beer tastes good so does the pintxos. Washing mud of clothes every day. Hotel Vega gave us a nice bottle of Rioja tinto joven with dinner, perfect. Most peregrinos hitting the sack early, we are all worn out. Climbing felt worse than yesterday.
