I got my bags packed on a roll heading out there and I'm ready to go looking real good

in my passport photo.

Amateur Traveler episode 269.

Tidy the Amateur Traveler goes to a location made famous by Ernest Hemingway as we go to Pamplona, Spain. The Welcome to the amateur traveler. I'm your host Chris Christensen. Before we get

into this week's interview I do have two news stories for you. The first one if

you're on a flight sometimes a good ham sandwich seems like it would be a good idea,

but probably not, as EasyJet learned, if the flight is from Tel Aviv.

They did apologize to their kosher customers. And speaking of an apology being

needed, a Mumbai-bound flight was delayed for nearly two hours, 40 minutes of which was caused by a passenger who made a ruckus over the fact that the pilot was a woman.

The man reportedly became jittery after the pilot came on the intercom to deliver a regular flight announcement and was female, the man started

grumbling saying, I don't want to die. She can't take care of the house. How will she take care of a plane?

For links to both of those stories check out the show notes at amateur traveler.com. I'd like to welcome the show Vicente Perez

who is coming to us currently from Los Angeles but originally from Spain.

Vicente welcome to the program.

Thank you very much. Nice being here.

And I believe you know somebody who's been on the program recently.

Yes, my wife Brooke was actually talking about our trip to Cheyenne.

And while we were talking about Cheyenne, it came up that Vicente had gone to college in the city of Pemplona in the region of Navarro in Spain.

And that is certainly something that a lot of tourists go to.

Now, we all know that the only reason to go to Pemplona is for the running the bulls, right?

That may not be the case, actually.

Actually, I would recommend if you can go to visit Pamplona any other time of the year, it may even be better.
