A bit shorter walk today, around 14 miles (22.5 Km) and not as hilly. Day started out a bit cooler. Leaving the town we walked by an industrial area, and became a nice walk by the river. Walked through some small towns until we got near Pamplona, where a lot of the walking was through the city and suburbs. One of the small towns we walked through had a church from the 13th century, very cool. We even got to go up in the belfry and rang the bell once each.
We also walked over a few very cool bridges (see pictures). Pamplona is a big city, but the old town is smaller, enclosed by a city wall. Many small streets, lots of people. Visited the Cathedral and the outside of the bull fighting ring where the running of the bulls ends. Food has been great so far, and so is the wine & beer. We had a toast for Carles’ birthday!
