Well Its been 4 days, just a tad over 100km. Last night I spent hte night in Cenzor minor at the albergue run by the nights of malta. Cenzor minor turned out to be a good choice as the town was in fiesta mode - I was very suprised to see the party still going as i started walking at 7am. I guess Spaniards know how to party.
Still no problems with any limbs or extremeties, though I´m still applying voltaron emugel liberally and taping thing things that I think might hurt if left uptaped (I leart this from climbing!). This afternoon it was so hot i decided to walk in my sandals and that seems to have been fine too.
Now i´m in the amazing hilltop town of Cirauqui with amazing views out the balcony. I´m hoping I can mantain my average of 25km a day and manage to reach Santiago by the end of the September, but time will tell.
There are certainly a lot of characters on the trail, sadly I think my speed has meant i´ve left a lot of the more diverse ones behind (But this also means I run into new ones!) and seem to have found a group of people who walk at the same speed. Today I walked with two french guys who weren´t that good at english, so our common language was failing together at Spanish.
Still these frustrating internet machines that suck up € by the 15minute and offer no ability to upload photos, are incredibly slow and seem to sporadically stop working for no reason. I´ve already filled up one memory card (though it wasn´t empty when i started) so i need to find a real computer soon before I fill up my second card!

10、Jumping frenchman disorder: weird reflexes
The main characteristic is that patients are extremely startled by an unexpected noise or sight. It’s not just twitching when someone sneaks up behind you. Patients with this disorder flail their arms, cry out and repeat words. First identified in some of Maine’s lumberjacks of French-Canadian origin, the odd reflex has been identified in other parts of the world, too.
Well done Tom. Can't wait to see your photos. I know what you mean about the Internet cafe computers being slow and expensive. Have fun. We are so proud of you. Love Mum and Dad
I think you're a couple of days or so away from Logrono, there should be a proper internet cafe somewhere around there.

Ask at the tourismo in Logrono. It used to be at the end of the big green park in the middle of Logrono. They will give you a map with the internet cafes marked on it.
