To celebrate we went to the Bocaria market for a decadent seafood meal, took a nap, explored the old city at dusk, and had another fabulous meal - Italian this time. Tomorrow the spartan life begins.

Big day, very tired
I'm writing very little because it's late and we have to get up at 6:00 am tomorrow the take a dab to the Sants bus station to go to Pamplona and them on to St. Jean Pied-de-Port. Yes, we're taking a bus. This morning we took the metro to the Sants train station to buy train tickets for tomorrow, but by the time we figured out how to do it on a machine, and my card didn't work so we tried Marty's, the train was sold out. Momentary panic fearing we would never get started on the Camino when we realized that the bus station was across the street. Takes 2 hours longer, but cost 75% less. Got back to the hotel and bought bus tickets to St.Jean online. We experienced great relief to have everything in place for tomorrow's start on the Camino!

Nothing like a good seafood dinner to cope with missed trains and long bus rides. Love your blog: long enough to convey the gist of your day and short enough to avoid the excruciating details of every nod and look that's come your way. Great photos--as they say, a picture is worth....But I must say I'm impressed with your words too. I guess I've rarely read anything you've written given our oral relationship (hmmmm). How about some entries in espanol? Buen suerte amiga mia, Lynne
