Sorry about not publishing yesterday and leaving everyone wondering whether we hiked or bussed. The night we spent in Pamplona gave us a multitude of opinions and we were ready to bus. We decided to hike and if we got turned away then we take the bus. We did not get turned back and did not see the remnants of the fire(blackened areas) until almost to Puente la Reina. We hiked 23.8 km (15 miles).

Pamplona is a lot bigger than I expected and is a nice clean city. Just out of the city the landscape really became farming grain.

Leaving Pamplona

We lost one of our group in Puenta to blisters. Stephen had 10 large blisters and decided to stay and talk to the pharmacist

Puenta la Reina means Queens Bridge. The bridge was built in 13 century in the romantic era.
