Day 15 - SJDP to Porto, Portugal

On May 18th, Gina and I traveled to Pamplona by bus. Along the way, we saw many of the pilgrims we had helped at the Pilgrim’s Office making their way along the Valcarlos route. The bus ride took about an hour and a half, and when we arrived in Pamplona, we treated ourselves to a delicious lunch.

After lunch, we decided to head to the airport early so we would have plenty of time to check our bags and relax before our flight. Little did we know that the airport was very small, with only two gates! Needless to say, we ended up sitting there for two hours, but thankfully there were comfortable couches where we could relax.

We flew from Pamplona to Madrid and then continued on to Porto, Portugal. When we arrived in Porto, I waited for my suitcase at baggage claim, but it never appeared. The airline informed me that my suitcase was still back in Madrid. Thank goodness I at least had my toothbrush with me while I waited for my suitcase to be delivered the next day.Read more
