Got quite the early start today as I wanted to leave the AirBnb in pristine condition. Although it was small, it was very well done and the Murphy bed with integrated couch worked well. Probably would have been a little tight with two of us, but for a solo traveler it was perfect and very economical. I drag my stuff down to the Halte Routiere, the bus stop and got on the Blabla bus to San Sebastián. Fortunately there was plenty of time to make the connection as we were a good 25 minutes late on a 40 minute trip. Switched to another bus and then about and hour and half to Pamplona through the most beautiful country of rolling hills. Looked almost like Vermont. Hopped a taxi out of the Bus station to my hotel. Let me say that I’m not really a 5 star hotel guy, but this one was on sale for a great price, was right on the main square and Hemingway used to stay here. I think the shower stall is almost as big as the apartment I was staying in last night. Anyway, room not ready, but they took my stuff and I immediately launched into a basic tapas crawl, eat a few things, drink a glass of red and then move on the next place. Spain is so much more relaxed around food and food culture than France. Pamplona has a wonderful feel of vibrancy, but is car free in the center. Spent most of the afternoon walking around and revisiting where I came into Pamplona for the first time through the French gate, on my camino in 2014. By some odd coincidence, Nancy Reynolds, who at the time ran an outfit called “Just Get Me Started” is here guiding a group. We had plans to Tapas crawl later, but she has too many moving parts, so will visit I tomorrow.
