LIVE from the Camino Pamplona

[urbanmamma]

We arrived safely and easily into Pamplona from Los Angeles airport. We started meeting pilgrims from the start on am airport bus in Madrid. Waiting for a flight to Pamplona we met several pilgrims, including 3 from our home town, San Diego!! Since this is my first Camino I have nothing to compare it to but have been enjoying Pamplona. This morning we woke early and made it to mass at the cathedral. We were very pleased to have the cathedral as our first stamps in our passports.

Pamplona is a good place (my favorite) to start the Camino.

Buen Camino!

When my friend Becky and her husband Todd walked the Camino several years ago, the first person they met was also from Boise where they lived. They ended up meeting 6 people from Boise during the course of the journey.

I love Pamplona and the Cathedral there. Did you take the tour? Did you see the bellringer's house?!
Have a VERY Buen Camino!

Vi ankom sikkert og lad til Pamplona fra Los Angeles lufthavn. Vi begyndte at møde pilgrimme fra starten på lufthavnsbussen i Madrid. Da vi ventede på et fly til Pamplona, mødte vi flere pilgrimme, heraf 3 fra vores hjemby, San Diego !! Da dette er min første Camino, har jeg ikke noget at sammenligne det med, men jeg har nydt Pamplona. I morges vågnede vi tidligt og nåede at messe i katedralen. Vi var meget glade for at have katedralen som vores første frimærker i vore

Love Pamplona. It seems like there is a festival every night. Beautiful city, good municipal albergue, good food and nice people.

Something really simple in Pamplona - a visit to the Mercado near to the Hemingway hostel. One entrance is on Calle Amaya. Plenty of fresh produce of every hue and taste...

My daughter is a freshman at SDSU. I will be starting my pilgrimage in Pamplona on Sept. 12. Did you fly into Madrid? If so, how did you travel to Pamplona? Buen Camino!

Hello from another San Diegan (actually- Poway), Buen Camino and I do envy you.

We flew from Madrid to Pamplona with Iberia. 35 min, very easy.

Did the Pamplona flight leave out of the same terminal, T4? Thanks

 

[urbanmamma]

No

Did the Pamplona flight leave out of the same terminal, T4? Thanks

No, we had to take the airport bus. I can remember the terminal.
Too much jetlag

Agree Kirkie! That was a treat and a welcome find to get some goodies to stow!

I decided to take the train. 3 hours and $61 USD is a pretty good deal.

I just arrived in Pamplona today too. We started in SJPdP and walked here today from Zubiri. At the moment I’m trying to get up the energy to go grab some dinner. I’m looking forward to seeing this beautiful city tomorrow! Perfect place for a rest day!

That sounds like a wonderful start to your camino. Everyday is a new experience to savor. Buen camino

I arrived in Pamplona from Madrid today and will start my Camino tomorrow. Glad to see the rain will hold off until Tuesday, should make the descent from Alto de Perdon a little safer. Hope to see many of you along the way, Buen Camino to all!

We arrive in Pamplona tomorrow walking from Larroaña for our 4th Camino day of our first Camino.

As we started up the Hill Without End from St Jean, the very first person we talked to ended up being from our hometown of Portland, Oregon.

It truly is a small world!

And the Camino brings us all together, like it is the first day in a new school - and everyone else is new too, so everyone is warm and eager to connect with others.
