Tuesday August 18th
Tuesday morning we prepared to leave San Sebastian. Nathan and I were still feeling pretty weak from the night before, but fortunately we only had a bit of driving planned for the day. We headed south and made a brief stop in Pamplona to check out where they did the famous "Corridas de Toros" or Running of the Bulls during the San Fermin festival. Pamplona is a beautiful city with lots of interesting historical sights that we didn't have the time or energy to visit.
We then drove to Agüero, which is a tiny village in the region of Huesca where we had rented a house for 3 nights. It is a very quiet and secluded village that looks like it hasn't changed in the last 100 years, but had a beautiful view of the mountains and particularly the Mallos de Agüero.
