How to get to Pamplona

Hi all,

The invites all went out today in the post, with the link to this site, so I hope you've all found it ok. So, how do you all get to Pamplona for the wedding...well, there's a few different airports you can fly into -

Dublin- Biarritz -
Biarritz is about an hour and a half drive from Pamplona. You can hire a car from the airport there, and I'll be posting details of train and bus timetables in the next 5-7 days. Ryanair flies into Biarritz on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.

Dublin- Bilbao -
Bilbao is around a two hour drive from Pamplona. Aer Lingus fly to Bilbao every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Trains and buses are fairly regular to Pamplona. My family are flying to Bilbao on the Thursday, so I will be arranging a bus for them from there. I'll have train and bus times in the next few days.

Alternatives-
There is an airport in Pamplona, but as far as I can ascertain, its not worth the money trying to fly into it. There's also a couple of small airports in the North of Spain near Pamplona, like Santander and Zaragoza, but I've tried googling them and the flights are astronomically priced, but if you're stuck its always worth a go.

This time next week I should have a list of all the hotels, hostels, apartments and other accomodation and prices contacts etc. The fantastic and wonderful Ms Susana Maistera has been working away gettin all the details. I just need to translate everything into English and then stick it up here.

Thanks

Elena and Keet

Welcome to our wedding blog spot!

Hi there everyone!

This is our wedding blogspot that our lovely friend Anna set up for us. The idea was that because we're getting married in Pamplona, it would be handy to have a blog online that everyone could check for details on flights, accommodation, when everyone's goin etc. So this is it. In the next few days I'll be updating this blog with some more info about flights and within the next week or two I'll have a list of possible hotels, hostels etc. for Pamplona, and anything else that we need to organise like buses from the airports. So, if you can't get a hold of me or Elena, and you need some info, check here.

On a personal note, I'd like to say that I'm just about the happiest man on the planet at the moment. It's been nearly three years since I got down on one knee and asked Elena to marry me, and for a while I think she thought that I was only asking cos I was a bit tipsy and emotional. Last October when we went back to Pamplona for a bit of a holiday we decided that we were going to book everything and get the ball rolling. So now here we are, three months to the big day. I can't wait. It's going to be a fantastic day. Elena and me have been trying our best to make it a fantastic day for everyone. Ok, so, keep checking back here for updates on our wedding!

If you need to contact us I'm always available on my mobile or via e-mail.

Lots of love from Elena and me!
