BUSCA2 second night in Logroño

Sunday October 1 Slight rain for a short while.  Hopefully not enough to affect the red clay for the walk tomorrow.

First stop, the cathedral.  Timing was perfect as we got to hear the organ playing for Sunday mass.  It was in the enclosed central section mentioned yesterday.

Service, mass,  picture, see green robes.

Leaving the church, in the same square was a flea market and a degustar of mushrooms being set up.

Few Spanish cities have been more fought over than Logroño. Few medieval monuments remain as the fighting started in 755 (defeat of Moors) and continued through the Carlist wars of the 19th century.

Laundry and treat in Oro de Costal 

Mushroom festival was a definite ball of string.  One booth, one type, buttons, sampled, 2 € with a drink.

Stopped and purchased a half bottle of a slightly aged Crianza.  In this case the higher price did reflect a taste we preferred.  According to the wine shop Reserva and Gran Reserva do not exist in half bottles.

Paired this with our remaining cheese and French apples.  Not so perfect still life follows. 

Tapas dinner on San Juan Street, one of the two long tapas streets. Went in search for peppers de padrón and other favorites.

First over to Santiago, two aspects. Closed off course.

The goose game, played by children, using dice or dies.

Excellent tapas night on San Juan Street.
