Hello everyone,
Trying to backtrack a bit to a few days ago and to go from there. My last blog entry we were in San Sebastian (actually it was Angela Chen who blogged) and you found out all about our adventures in San Sebastian. Hey, Angela, that walk around the mountain was good exercise and what they hey - we got to the beach after all!!!! ;) Okay, as you kids say "my bad" - if only one of you guys hadn´t noticed the cathedral......:)
The following day was a travel day. It took us nine hours to drive from San Sebastian to Barcelona. Actually the trip is only 7 hours but we took a two hour break in Pamplona. Good thing too, because our guide showed us the route of the ¨running on the bulls¨ (see photos). Did you know that the route is only about 4 blocks long and lasts only 5 to ten minutes? They set the bulls free every day at about 8 am. This last several days.
Then we are off to Barcelona, just in time for dinner. We were all treated to chicken paella and an accordian player who regaled the crowd. And, we celebrated Angela Chen´s birthday a day early (she had more celebrations the following day) with a ¨happy birthday serenade (check out pix). Sweet sixteen!
Back to the hotel at 10 pm (another full day). We all slept like logs.
Next blog - adventures in Barcelona.
Hasta pronto!
As we know a picture is worth a thousand words. So finally some photos! I
