    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    I'm back walking and fully recovered, thank goodness. So sorry to hear you've come down with a second cold - unless the first didn't fully clear up and has returned? I hope you get well soon too!

    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    @VNwalking yes, you're right - I still have a big adventure ahead of me! Plus I was lucky enough to experience SJPP to Puente La Reina before getting sick, so I have much to be grateful for. I've been looking forward to the Meseta since first learning about the Camino. The wide-open spaces call...

    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    @lovingkindness , thank you for your love and kindness (😏)! I'm much better and plan to recommence my Camino from Burgos, where I'll go tomorrow by bus. I'm sad to miss such a big section of the Camino - Estella to Burgos - but I need to be grateful that I still have a Camino at all, given how...

    My shared taxi from Puente La Reina to Estella, via Lorca to drop off the fellow peregrina, was €20 each (€40 total). The distance was about 20km.

    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    @Peterexpatkiwi , Hey mate, I'm much improved but my cough sounds horrendous, as these things usually do before they get better. But I'm definitely on the mend! Still, I'm being very cautious and will spend the weekend here in Estella to fully recover and try to build back some strength. I went...

    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    Haha, I can absolutely relate... I've been wearing merino layers and tights to bed, with blanket, duvet cover, extra blanket and my sleeping bag over the top!

    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    Hi all, quick update: I'm extending my stay in Estella for the coming weekend. I'm still really sick with headache (back again 😣), dreadfully sore throat, and really nasty congested chest with death-rattle cough 😳😏. I went out to get some groceries today and I'm so weak and shaky and sick. I'm...

    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    I'm worried about that. I haven't taken a Covid test but I'll pick one up when I go to the pharmacy again, masked and social distancing!

    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    I totally get where you're coming from - who knows why this happened or what will come of it, but I've bumped into a few peregrinos while out and got to see the stunning church, so trying to look on the bright side!

    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    Thank you for your kind words! I went out briefly this morning to get more cold medicine and went up to see the Iglesia de San Miguel while I was out, which is truly impressive. It's quite cold today so I'm back inside now. Fingers crossed this'll clear up soon.

    Holed Up With a Nasty Cold

    Oh no!!! That's bad news... You'll just have to try and be patient and let it heal ("Yes, mum" 😏). Give yourself a break - you're already putting up with a lot, so go on and binge-watch whatever you want! Hoping all goes well and you're back up and at it quickly!
