Two days ago we spent the night in Pamplona. We got into town around 11am in the morning. We planned on having a short day of hiking (approximately 15km) so we could spend the day in the city. The alburgue, pilgrim hostel, had a ancient door and looked very rustic from the outside. Inside was a completely different story. The alburgue has been completely remodeled and we felt like we were living the life of luxery.
We spent the day walking around the city visiting famous places like the Plaza de Torros and the main plaza where we ate tapas and drank sangria for three hours. People watching is amazing hear. We watched a five year old kid play bumper cars with his little sisters stroller. He was running in and out of resturantes and running into complete strangers.
The past two days we have been in Puenta la Reina. Today has been a rest day. We stayed the first night in the alburgue, but tonight we are in a hotel resting our muscles and joints. We went to church this morning in a beautiful stone cathedral. Time is running out. We will post more pictures when we can.
