• A last meander through Zaragoza

    July 26, 2024 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C

    Had my last tapas, trying a chocolate and chicken (or as they called it “hen”) croquette and an original jamón. Jamón was delicious, the chocolate one was… different 😂. This meal was super quick so went for a final meander around the narrow laneways and streets of Zaragoza.

    I love the small streets full of people day drinking (does anyone work here?) at cute little bars. Seemingly around every other corner there is another church too. Plazas pop up out of nowhere filled with umbrellas sheltering, you guessed it, more drinkers taking in a lunchtime beer or wine in the shade. Such a relaxing life it seems.

    I’ve enjoyed my 2 days here. While it was booked as part of my plan to try and slow down and take a break, I still managed to squeeze a lot into this smaller city. Would recommend for a short stop between Madrid and Barcelona. Now off to Palma on, wait for it, Ryanair. I feel this flight is going to be very different to my last 6! (Yes that’s how many flights got me to Europe 😂✈️)
