Day 4 - Pamplona pinctxos

After a shower and a rest, time to hit the town. I popped in to the Iglesia de San Lorenzo, the home of the statue of the city’s patron saint, St Fermin. The bull run is held on St Fermin holiday. Also the St Nicholas church dating back to the 1100s. Spent some time loving the vibe around town, which had come alive by early evening, around the Plaza del Castillo, full of happy people and surrounded by bars and eateries. First stop, Cafe Inuna, famous as the bar where Ernest Hemingway characters dined and drank (and so did he). Had 2 yummy pinctxos and a beer - anchovy/salmon/cream cheese and anchovy/picked veges. Second stop was Bar Cerveceria La Estafeta for another 2 pinctxos - pimiento and chistorra. Last stop was the best at Bar Gaucho for the last 2 pinctxos and a Tinto Verana - codfish with egg in filo and pork cheek in cheese sauce - unbelievably tasty!
I could do more of Pamplona, what a nice city.
