Spain - Day 7

We had an early morning wake up again today, this time it was a group if 4 guys in the car park departing on their motorbikes. One of them was just sat in the car park revving his engine really loudly for no reason, guess everyone has a Tim in their group :)

Breakfast today was at a local cafe, which appears to be the noisiest place on the planet. Sharing the place with us were a bunch of Spanish climbers, for breakfast they had beer and chips, legends.

Soon we were on the motorway, whacked the cruise control on and spent the journey in a boring haze until we got to zaragoza.

We were staying in Hotel Sauce where we'd stayed before in 2014. We were in a different room though, which required a map and a guide to find the room. We're pretty sure that Indiana Jones wouldn't have found our room it's that hidden.

Out in the city we found an awesome food court which sold everything, although Mark still struggled to find something edible whereas Steve was like a powered up pac man.
We then stopped by bar street and had a quick beer and spoke to some Spanish guys who were here for a metal concert. We asked them what food they recommended and they told us to eat intestines. Anyway, we left our zombie friends as the bar was closing and went and found a nice square to squat in. Steve continued his argument with BMW as we still don't know how we're getting home, finally we're getting somewhere though.
We've noticed a trend in that every bar and cafe we go in seems to close shortly after we sit down. We're thinking that the free shower gel in the hotels isn't that effective!

After recharging the batteries in the room , we ventured out and got a table in the centre of town and people watched whilst eating tapas and sipping beer. We had competitions to see who could spot the biggest weirdo (there were lots) and also oddest couple. 

We saw some odd people, like the family that came out to have dinner under the scaffolding, what a night they must have had and the guys that came out and sat staring at a wall rather than the cathedral the other side.

We opted for an early night tonight as we had an early start tomorrow...race day beckons.
