"Pamplona." Pamplona by pfsmalo

Pamplona Travel Guide: 195 reviews and 451 photos

We didn't stay in Pamplona for more than a couple of hours. Two main reasons : Impossible to find a room at a reasonable price and I was freezing my nuts off!!!! This was supposed to be July in Spain....Hung around long enough to see that preparations were in place already for the bull-running in 1 weeks time and a short walk around the main square and a couple of points of interest.

Shall certainly have to planify another visit, perhaps in December it'll be warmer.

Basque colours.

Hi Karl,
Pamplona was cold enough, but when we got up to Roncesvalles it got worse. Drizzle and fog as well, what a day. Anyway, thanks for the visit and like you I'll try to get back some other time.

Paul

Hi Paul, I see you made it to Pamplona and froze your bulls off. I missed it this year....hopefully next year... Cheers, Karl
