Went to bed last night at 11p (which felt like 4p) slept for a couple hours, then tried to sleep for the next 5. Saw the clock around 6a... and then woke with a start at 11:20a. Check out at noon!
Found a good brunch, walked through though Madrid's expansive central park, and then to the train station. Fast electric train to Pamplona, now sitting in the Plaza del Castillo enjoying a local vino rosando and waiting for dinner.
Tomorrow- bus to Saint Jean Pied de Port.
