Monday.
Awoke in a services stop about a hour north of Bayonne to find we had slept in, must be over the jet lag now. We stopped in Bayonne for supplies and make our way to Pamplona. After one of many toll stops liam notices the brakes are not working 100% as the van approaches a police stop. We make it into Pamplona and try to find a work shop that could help us, but after waiting two hours we figured the city must have a day off due to the running of the bulls. We make it to the campsite and found Gibbo by luck more than anything. We attempt to put the awning up with no avail, deciding a cold sangria is a better option.....maybe not. We end up at the campsite bar where everyone was in good spirits and we meet aleisha new port and also aleisha broomfield. There were Spanish dancers on table tops getting the atmosphere going. Great to be finally in Pamplona.
Tuesday.
Boys slept in and woke up sprawled In and around the van meaning we missed the bull run and wasted 40€ on bus tickets (camp site located in mending orris, 25 mins from Pamplona)!!! So the day was pretty much wasted. We thought we better get the vans brakes looked at, so went to near by towns to the camp site for some help. The first mechanic spoke some English and was able to tell us our alternator was stuffed and sent us on the another town. This place had a ford service shop so was able to help us out, but the part was going to take two days to arrive. So we ordered the part and will return in two days.
