Late April
Experienced the first day of rain so far. It was mostly light but it lasted most of the day. Made the air a bit chilly but tolerable. I went from Manero to Villamayor today. Spent most of the day alone! Even got to enjoy the wine fountain in Irache by myself!
Beun Camino!!

I thought I replied to this but it apparently didn't take! I brought my 45 degree sleeping bag and that's been fine for me. For the mornings which have been chilly, I would recommend bringing a warm had and gloves. Not ski gloves but something to protect you from the wind and morning chill.
