After a long flight we landed in Madrid and boarded an ALSA bus to Pamplona. Vicky has decided I will not be doing future trip planning if the days will be as long as the last two.
The bus advertised an on board rest room. Vicky scanned the bus and did not see one. Egad we thought. We each just had two coke zeroes, a long wait for a late bus, and we're facing a two hour bus ride. Soon thereafter a lady walked to the rear exit stairs and stepped down, opened a small door to the lavatory steps. Ah, the simple joy in knowing that relief was indeed at hand.
The scenery on the ride from Madrid was different than we expected, but still enjoyable. We changed buses in Soria. There was snow in some of the nearby hills and it was actually snowing in others. We may be walking in snow when we start the Camino on Friday.
We will tour Pamplona today and I hope to post again this evening. I tried to attach pictures, but Google has decided that since we are in Spain, instructions will be in Spanish. Ay carrumba, we don't speak Spanish.

I had the same thing happen to me on a bus going to Prague! When I finally found the bathroom I was very relieved! (Pun intended.)
