By the way....Im coming from Barcelona and planning to go back to Barcelona after Pamplona for a few days.

btorgoley · 07-05-2004, 07:11 AM

Alright guys my things are finalized, my advise is to book early as the trains are all filling up. Im in madrid right now, leaving tomm , the 6th at 19.30 arriving in pamplona at 2309. So i will be a half hour late for the 1030 meeting.

But look for me on train 608 from madrid.

TPUNKERS WHO WANT TO MEET UP; TO GET boozed and sleep in the park, meet at the train station at 1045-1109(hahaha). We will take it from there.....

**Somnambulation** · 07-05-2004, 08:41 AM

The trains from San Sebastian run every hour and it takes about 50 minutes to get there. That seems the better option than taking the train if you are coming from San Seb. I found a place to stay and am staying there tonight and tomorrow, the 6th. I will probably go to the bus station tonight or early tomorrow and reserve a bus ticket for the morning of the 7th. We are all still meeting at that restaraunt and 5 pm on the 7th correct_

**tecia** · 07-05-2004, 08:49 AM

yes that is correct!
and btorgoley i'm not sure if we will make that time i don't know when we are going to get into san sebastian so i will get back to you!!
but when we do get in i am sure i will need a drink

Ok folks, itçs 9:30 on the night of the 5th. I am in San Seb right now with Lauren and we´re trying to figure out when we´re going to Pamplona. Tecia, were you still planning on just grabbing us and going down to Pamplona on the night of the 6th? Lauren said she saw the forecast and it is going to be raining in Pamplona so sleeping in the park might get a little wet. But the first bus in the morning leaves at 7am and might not be enough time for the running that starts at 8am.. ....I don´t know, let me know what everyone´s plans are because ´we´re pretty confused...Please add dates in your posts Tecia....it´s no fair saying that you´re getting in on the -th.

Later.
Jason

**tecia** · 07-05-2004, 12:32 PM

This seems like its gonna be harder than suspected. but im still heading to pamplona by train tonight from madird and arriving at 1109. Im gonna be at the ticket booth waiting for you guys, unless things change.

Ill be wearing a dark blue /black shirt that has the london underground logo on it and cargo shorts and have a large green backpack.

If things change, please let me know. Hope to see you guys tonight.

btorgoley · 07-06-2004, 04:09 AM

Hope to see you guys toingiht

**Somnambulation** · 07-06-2004, 06:02 AM

Looks like Im going to be on the 11 am bus from San Sebastian to Pamplona tomorrow, the 7th. I will miss the first running, but I will be there with plenty of time to find this restaraunt where this meeting will take place. Hopefully find a locker as well. Jason, let me know if you and Lauren want to meet up here in San Sebastian. I will be on the net later on, but the sun is finally out so I think its beach time right now. Im staying at the Puerto Pension and Im using the Dostonia Net in la parte viaje.

**ChasinJason1313** · 07-06-2004, 06:17 AM

hey som, Lauren and I are leaving San Seb tonight w/ Tecia and Ash, although I'm still waiting to hear from her. I'm waiting to hear from them so I know when to get a bus to leave. It'll probably be this evening sometime if you want to get a drink or something beforehand. I'll be hovering around the computer for the day waiting to find out what's going on. Lemme know if you want to meet up. At least that way we'll know what each other looks like. Lauren went there today and said that it is the most insane thing ever and there is little chance of seeing anyone you know but I guess our chances would improve if we knew what we looked like. By the way, bring as many clothes as possible because Lauren was there for 2 hours and has champagne, shaving cream, and silly string in her hair and gazpacho soup on her clothes. Have fun all!!

Woo hoo
Jason's getting shitfaced before noon

Hughes9115 · 07-06-2004, 08:15 AM

The only train i could get to Pamplona does not arrive until 18:30 on the 7th but I went ahead and made the reservation anyway. Is there any hope for me to meet up with the group around 19:00 or 19:30???? Or will everyone be long gone from the meeting spot by then?????

Somebody please let me know ASAP because if possible I would like to find you.
Thanks,
Andy

**tecia** · 07-06-2004, 08:38 AM

hey andy how about we meet you at your train!! Let us know what you are on and we know you get in at 18:30 so we will keep an eye out for you!!

btorgoley · 07-06-2004, 08:47 AM

Tecia, ash, lauren, JW,

Does that mean that you guys are gonna be in Pamplona tonight? If so let me know what time you get in, so that i can find you guys tonight. Im gonna stick to the original meeting spot for now. at the ticket booth of the train station in pamplona at 1109. I will hurry up and get there, so you guys dont have to wait long. If you guys are gonna get in after that, its all good, ill wait for you there, but please let me know.

Ill be wearing a dark blue, LONDON UNDERGROUND shirt with cargo shorts, black hair......see ya ssoon.

Hughes9115 · 07-06-2004, 09:11 AM

Tecia (and anybody else),

You know I will arrive tomorrow the 7th....right? I just wanted to make sure because I was surprised that you will be able to meet me because I thought the train station was 20 min outside of the city?

My train is the TLG 533.
It leaves Barcelona at 12:30 and arrives in Pamplona at 18:30.
I´m leaving most of my stuff in Barcelona so I will just have a very small black backpack and I´ll be wearing green cargo shorts. My picture is on here so you can see what I look like too.

So....Look for me getting off the train. I will hang around that area until people clear out a bit so we can find each other.

Let me know if anything changes.
Thanks,
Andy

**urOZm8** · 07-06-2004, 09:30 AM

hey isnt it all just fun and games guys :greenguy:

I have got my shit sorted. Long story short. I was going to travel to san sebastion on 5th early with guys i met in biarritz but decided not to. Plans were foiled and I did end in san sebastion late that night with nowhere to stay. Had fun finding a place but met a sydney guy on the street, crashed on his shoebox pension floor. Will do that again tonight and will be catching 11am bus to pamps on 7th. Might see you on the bus som! I think I will be wearing white shirt, grey pants, wearing glasses, facial hair and a bit burnt from spending day on the beach...
Otherwise see all 5pm restaurant.
good luck guys

**tecia** · 07-06-2004, 10:05 AM

**Somnambulation** · 07-06-2004, 12:31 PM

Sounds good everyone. Ozm8, I will likely be wearing a grey jacket and tan shorts tomorrow, so hopefully see you on the bus. Tecia knows what I look like so hopefully she will spot me. See everyone at 5 oclock tomorrow.

Oh yeah, and if the restraunt is full, which it liekly will be, we will meet out front right?

**tecia** · 07-07-2004, 02:13 AM

we went to the restraunt and told them that we were going to be there!!!
this place if crazy!!! It rained last night and we slept in a damn doorway for a few hours the stories we will have to tell!! We found a cool place to sleep though if it rains again!!

Andy just meet us at the restraunt we will still be there and wait for a few hours!!!

If any one misses there is a place in the center to put you bags ask any one and they will tell you it is 2€ but we can meet there at lets say 10:00 pm or 22:00 by the center pillar!!
