OK OK OK.. after a 8 hour bus ride up to the north, we finally get to San Sebastien (just past Pamplona).. We pull up in the cab into this wicked little town that was soo bustling with people it was awesome. Our accomodations are wicked nice. A bit loud at night since we face a street with partyers, but nice nonetheless.

Our first real day here and its pretty gray out. Doesn´t stop the surfers from doing their thing though. I need to look into renting a board so I can join the crew. Lots of tourists, lots of Ozzies.. all good.

Now if we can only figure out a way to get to Pamplona for the 7:30 bull run...

..... 4 days later ..... an update

I ended up renting a surf board the next day. Tried my hand at the waves for 3/4 of an hour. Rough surf, but that's no excuse. I was pathetic and I'm ashamed. Won't happen again.

We figured out our Pamplona problem. More on that in the next section.

Last thing - I booked a flight to Switzerland from Madrid. That's where I'll be July 15. Was gonna check out lower Spain, but I've had enough of the country and the language. No offense to any Spanish people that read this.

Hi, Just wondering again if you could give me the name of the hostel you stayed in? Sounds like it would suit be perfect. Thanks a mil!
