Hello Laurie. I´m Pingüigrino, and this is my first time writing in this forum. My wife an me are active pilgrims, and I am a a Hospitalero Voluntario. Both us love the Caminos, and sharing experiences and helping if necessary.I'm trying to get a rough idea of my likely Camino 2016, and am wondering about whether to tentatively plan a rest day in Zaragoza. I was there a couple of times in the 80s and 90s and I have to admit I didn't feel like it was a place I wanted to explore more. But things may have changed, or I may have been in the wrong state of mind, so I'm wondering if any forum members have spent time there, and if so, whether you recommend a full day to explore. What are your favorite places? Thanks and buen camino, Laurie

Actually I´m living in Zaragoza. I think its a good city to take a rest day, and will be our pleasure to be your "cicerone" here.
If you need more information about, hotels, albergue, food ,tapas and good wine, please feel free of asking me. Sorry for my bad english, just improving . Buen Camino
I will be in Zaragoza late May too. My wife and me are planing to return to Camino Frances for easter holidays ( she is younger tan me and is still working). Probably we´ll start in Ponferrada, maybe Sahagun. Hope we can meet in Zaragoza you and anniethenurse, I´ll pay for the first beer o glass of wine of course.
Zaragoza is a city full of students and they love party.
Shisss! We, ederly people of Zaragoza, are trying to seem respectable.Not just students. As you'll know, it's said that even the lion of the coat of arms of Zaragoza is dancing (a jota)...
P.S.: I should go back to Zaragoza. It has been a long time since my last visit.
You can take the train from Estacion Canfranc (or Jaca) to Zaragoza. It is an interesting ride. The road bed will scare you to death (it scares the engineer; he goes about 10 kph in some stretches).I plan on doing the Aragones in late September and am thinking about catching the bus from Jaca to do a day trip to Zaragoza. Any thoughts?
