NARRATIVE: Sent a bag ahead, so we had an easy, short day. My back muscle spasms are gone, but I still have hip pain. Tere is also having foot pains. Frederic, a Frenchman we met the first night in Aroue stopped and wrapped her foot. After that, it was much better for her. Checked in as soon as we arrived (happy to see our bag), then we got money, went to the vegetarian restaurant for me with Janelle from San Francisco. We were supposed to meet up with Frederick there, but he thought it was closed so he went elsewhere and moved on. My meal was good (veg soup with couscous, rice with mushroom risoto, and yogurt with homemade jelly), but expensive at €16. It's Sunday, so everything is closed. Found the only open pharmacy and stocked up on pain meds. Searched desperately for a new memory card for Tere's camera and finally found one in a Chinese store. Tere ate chicken, fries and salad in a middle eastern place. Walked around a bit so Tere could take some photos and made our way back to the albergue to relax.
