It’s party season in this corner of the Francés, which is good if you like culture noise music and running bulls, but not so good if you are a perigrino who wants to sleep at night. I am here as a hospitalera in Viana and will be right in the thick of things. From Saturday Sept10 until Wednesday September 14, there will be nightly music in the town plaza until 4 am nightly. Bull running starts on Sunday the 11th at 1 pm and 7:30 pm daily (through the center of town, along the Camino. The crowd barriers are already in place!) Logroño will have a week of fiestas starting on Saturday the 17th, which may impact the noise level and bed availability. Ear plugs recommended!
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

I plan to be in logrono around the 19th. Will there be much activity?
thanks
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

It was a lovely surprise to come into town and feel the giddiness of the locals dressed in their whites with red kerchiefs and everything decorated for a party, barriers up and once cleaned up I headed to the plaza to catch in some of the festivities and looked into the ring to see the boys trying to place their ribbons on the horns of the bull who was hellbent in getting to this young man. I got some good photos in spite of my lack of clear view by elevating my phone above the crowds. I was pleased that I attended despite my being tired and my very painful multiple foot blisters. I was staying about two blocks from the plaza and was too tired to object to the nightly celebrations🤗
