Hotel Silken Zentro Zaragoza

... streets and some clear and sane mind, we found a camping site to park our RV in spend a night....<br><br>I found Zaragoza very quiet town. 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. Lots of people on the streets, bars start filling at 7 p.m. and are full until 3 a.m. So, for us it was - Party time!!!<br>

... they speak Catalan in some areas there. <br><br>Zaragoza is now famous for having hosted World Expo 2008, and according to my guidebook, is the perfect place to perfect the Spanish lisp ... sigh ... the Spanish lisp ... so sweet and so melodic ...<br><br>But the most interesting piece of information I found in my guidebook about Aragon is something called "La Caravan de Mujeres". There are way too many single men in Aragon's small towns, so every so ...

... us from the sun. When it comes out, it is very hot.<br><br>We are in cattle and pig country, we sure can smell it all along. We do have the air on open windows wide! We stopped at a gas station to get a slurpee, it was closed so had to walk across the highway to the station there to get a couple of pop. No slurpees here! We see a couple of huge statues of bull cows on hill tops and interesting signs ...

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. Left over from 2008 water based expo, with typically spanish rusty iron "sculpture".<br><br>35 degree C until light shower cooled us all off.<br><br>Bren washed her hair in the public drinking fountain, starting a trend with the other family.

... was our groups turn again and having Abdula was a great help as once again got it a lot cheaper. Our treat to Abdula for putting us all up for the night was coming to Marrakesh with us and then Chris would pay for his train ticket back home. Next stop was Dade where Abdula had a cousin who owned a camp site so instead of the original plan of bush camping we got hot showers and sit down toilets for the first time in morocco so far but by the time we got there after cooking dinner ...

... going out relentlessly to cool bars and casually seeing faces from the TV in nightclubs and on the street it was never going to be my city, i mean its big, dirty and bit up its own **** at times and also it seems to lose its identity a little with the amount of people living there, don't get me wrong if you are in some amazing job making a rack of money you are sorted but really how many people are living that "dream", with a flat over looking the Thames and that, i bet its ...

We said goodbye to our wonderful host Sylvia in Guadalahara. The morning light and warmth felt like late May back home. We took to the A2/E90 heading NE towards Zaragoza. One hour later we turned off the highway to visit an old Roman fort on the top of a mountain with a spectacular view, Mendinacellini. Structures ...

I woke up about 9am, my latest start for about a week, and hauled myself downstairs to check out, before dragging myself three kilometres to Delicias train station to get a reservation on the evening train to Madrid. After some frenzied negotiation with a friendly woman who spoke no English I managed to secure myself a seat on the 14.32 train instead. I'd still get to Madrid that day, but it sadly left me just over four hours to explore the Aragonese capital ...

I took the night train from Paris to Madrid and then met up with Hector...we took a bus to his home town of Zaragoza. I am staying in his childhood home tonight and tomorrow night. Tomorrow day I am going to the World Expo that is here while he goes to participate in a triathlon (I would have ...
