It's got a big cathedral and a square in front of it, statue of Goya and few other nice things.<br><br>But at night it's completely different.

We see 4 spires, it is either a church or a mosque, I think the first.

Boring long day on the A23, highest col 1223m.<br> <br>Looking for aire in Zaragoza when Brits James, Clare and Katie in their motorhome took us under their wing to the park they'd already stayed in.

... us to a carpet shop where we looked at carpets and had mint tea, no body bought anything and the sales men got very grumpy and pretty much made us leave, at this stage we thought we had lost our guide as he wasn't happy as didn't get his commission from lunch also no commission from carpets so we thought he'd done a runner, but we finally found him Chris and Gary asked if he can take us to a local market so we can buy food for dinner, but we managed to somehow get back to the ...

I arrived in Zaragoza Delicias at about half seven and instantly went to the tourist information centre at the station, that was surprisingly open and manned by a woman who actually spoke English who provided me with a map for the long walk into the city centre.

We were flying out from Zaragoza a town approximately a 3 hours bus ride from Barcelona. Thus, at 10am we caught a bus from the bus station, finally arriving in Zaragoza central just after two.
