Hotel Zenit Pamplona

... away. Tomorrow we will continue our bus tour, as we purchased the two day pass. Which kind of negated the purchase of the two day metro pass. Oh well. I will upload pictures now and then head to bed.

P.S. I have to apologize for the numerous spelling mistakes that I have made so far. But, I apparently left my brain at home. Oh well. That's what happens when I spend 10+ hours a day sightseeing and then try to type a blog!!

... pulling out of the train station the car in front of us slams on the brakes and our cabbie smashes the back of her car. The lady who was driving looks back at us pretty ****** off, and motions for us to pull over, our cabbie, who´s really annoyed, nods his assent and when the lady pulls over he takes off! I wasn´t complaining I wanted to get to Pamplona!
When I finally arrived in Pamplona it was like nothing I´d ever seen before. Everyone was ...

3: three men in hot pink leggings wave pink capes at the bull then run behind a little barrier where the bull can't reach them
4: a man enters the arena riding an armoured horse. The bull charges the horse, in some cases pushing it over, while the man on the horse stabs the bull with a long spear and the men in pink leggings try to distract it
5: horse man leaves, three more men enter arena with two short blue ...

... of a life in Christ until recently.  Before that there was just religion, but now there is relationship and profound meaning. So why travel and why pilgrimage? Society affects you more than you realise. It is only until you leave it and find yourself in a new and different environment that you understand how much it shapes and moulds you.  How much it influences your beliefs in terms of the way things should be and what is "normal". That is not to say that ...

... than I did and there it was. Real Duff beer!, just like on telly!. I'm not really the sort of person of gets excited about tv merchandise, but this was an exception, if I was a medieval Basque..well...lets not go there. Of course it's not an official product- a Mexican brewer just knew he'd sell more beer by calling it Duff and giving his labels the exact same colours and design. He was right. I ordered one. It was hardly a fantastic beer, but I ...

Ainaz´ New Blog: www.travelpod.com/members/ainaz Ola! I'm at a small coin-op internet terminal which doesn't have a USB connection, so unfortunately photos will have to wait until I get to a real internet cafe. Man, Spain is hot! France was generally quite cool, but on this side of the Pyranees everything changed. I broke camp in a light drizzle out of St. Jean Pied de Port in France Friday morning. I tried to wait out the rain but it didn't seem to want to clear up so I ...

... located on the Ramblas, and a fresh food market was just blocks away. We started off the trip checking out the Olympic site and Calatrava's tower. On the way, we walked right past the Barcelona Pavilion and barely noticed it. It was cool to see in person and fit well into the site. My favorite project we saw was Enrique Morales's Santa Catarina market, and it was impressive to see his other works and how ...

... raved about. We continued our circuitous route back towards the car except that I could not find the parking station. I was lost. I led us past the Sagroda in my search and it was Anne who finally got us back on track. One of the problems with designing a city along the lines of a square grid...all the corners look the same. It cost us 12 Euros for that stay and generally we were finding Spain much cheaper than France and UK. The pound goes a long way here ...

... we made our way down to Valencia which ended up being another big Spanish city with even more crazy people. In the first street we walked down, a female hobo decided that she would throw her bottle of goon at us, which smashed in front of Nads feet...´welcome to Valencia´. It ended up being a pretty nice city and the hostel we stayed in complied with human rights laws and gave us a bit more space to live in. I think the highlight of Valencia for ...
