Walking through the town

« The three lines of fortifications made three black lines of people. »

« down past the steep street that led to the bridge across the Arga. »

« down past the market »

« their cages into the corrals. »

« Then they pulled up the door of the cage. »

«  the great brown cathedral »



« You have to drink plenty of wine to get it all down »



« The driver helped us down with the bags. There was a crowd of kids watching the car »


« It is always cool in the down-stairs dining-room and we had a very good lunch »



« We passed the bull-ring »



« We passed the bull-ring, high and white and concrete-looking in the sun, and then came into the big square by a side street and stopped in front of the Hotel Montoya »

"The chapel where San Fermin and the dignitaries had passed in"
"When the song ended with the sharp riau-riau! they rushed us into a wine-shop"

 This extract revolves around how much jake and hus friends have appreciated the city of Pampelona, try a lot of cafés and wine shops, spending most of their money in these.

The first part deals with the fiesta, a renown and traditional spanish fiesta with bulls.

The second part revolves around Pampelona, its narrow streets and what they have done during the morning, which is going to be buying wine.

Starting with the second part of the text, the four other parts after this one mostly talk about Pampelona's cathedral and its surroundings.

We then have chosen this place as the topical theme of this extract, since it is the one that is the most represented


Extrat 2- Chapter 10: Noé B, Emma L, Hugo K, Camille C







« I went to the Ayuntamiento and found the old gentleman who subscribes for the bull-fights tickets […] so that was all set. »



« We  went out to walk around under the arcade to the Café Iruña for coffee. »



« I saw Cohn coming over across the square. »


« At the end of the street I saw the cathedral and walked up toward it. The first time I ever saw it I thought the facade was ugly but I liked it now. I went inside. »



The end of the fiesta

« The white-paper announcements of the unloading of the bulls and the big schedules of trains were still up on the pillars of the arcade. »
« The cafés were just opening[…] I sat in one of the wicker chairs »
« The square was empty and there were no people on the streets »
