Managed to get a ride with the school bus to the nearest big town, Huesca. The driver was a real gem who was so kind to us. He spoke good English and was very informative about bird migrations in the area and the local legends.
After a fair bit of trudging around Huesca we managed to post a parcel of unneeded stuff home, buy a basic camera to replace my dead one, get a claim form printed - we were robbed by an ATM machine the other day - get some basic food supplies, have lunch and catch an early afternoon bus back to Loarre.
We met 2 pilgrims which was really nice - not doing the same route as us but at least we could compare notes. We spent quite some time idly chatting away, the joys of a day off - but felt quite exhausted and had to go back to our lovely restaurant for a restorative feast cooked by the colourful Alexandre Ring.
