Clothing for the GR11 trip
Hi Christy, We carried one set of decent clothing in our backpacks for evenings and to get out of dirty/wet/used hiking clothing. I carried a decent set of Prana slacks and a decent synthetic shirt that were OK for the restaurants in the small towns as well as refugio evenings. They were a poly blend so they could be washed in a sink and dry overnight. I found a pair of really cute Croc shoes (not the ugly ones) which were very lightweight, and used those in the towns and for getting up at night. I found lightweight silk underwear and slept in those while in refugios, since there is rarely privacy there. WE got these cool silk sleep sacks that were very lightweight; the refugios supply blankets and pillows (but I used my fleece jacket as a pillow and stuffed it into the pillow section of the sleep sack). Good luck and have fun. We stayed at the same hotel in Barcelona both going and coming, so we left nice clothing in Barcelona so we had appropriate wear for city restaurants. Of course, we had many layers for the hiking trip which we had with us the whole time.
